Example traffic prediction and management tasks:
Estimate current/future traffic flow
Predict the near-future locations of vehicles
Which vehicles to inform in case of an event?
How and which vehicles to re-route in case of an event?

Trajectory Data
Number of objects: 1500 taxis and 400 trucks
Measuring technology: GPS (+ accelerometer) based
measuring position (+ speed and heading)
Location sampling: every 60 sec for taxies with passengers
(off-route less frequently) and every 30 sec for trucks
Area/extent: Greater Stockholm area approximately 100km
by 100km
Data rate/size: 170 million measurements per year / 1000
measurements per minute
Availability: provided by Trafik Stockholm and is available at
the Transport and Logistic Division of the Department of
Urban Planning and Environment, Royal Institute of
Technology (KTH), Sweden

Traffic Management Benchmark
Need to design a benchmark to evaluate the performance,
accuracy and scalability of a proposed traffic management
system.
Design considerations:
Trajectory sample bias: taxis are special
Absence of individual mobility patterns: methods relying on such
patterns cannot be meaningfully evaluated
Need for privacy: evaluation under different privacy requirements
Realistic scalability tests: simple duplication of data does not
increase spatial-temporal density of it and is thus unrealistic
