Abstract.
Traffic congestion has many negative effects on people in the city. Although large amounts of road traffic data have been collected, we still have not been able to fully understand traffic congestion. The task is becoming still more difficult because traffic data are in effect too abundant and are highly disaggregate with respect to space and time. The research reported in this presentation seeks to use visualization techniques to understand road network performance in space-time, using data gathered from monitoring devices in London.
