Abstract

Over the last decade, the evolution of the Internet of Things (IoT) has resulted in a drastic increase in the development of smart cities, including smart parking and intelligent transportation systems (ITS). Smart cities combine a variety of sensors (such as traffic, parking and weather sensors) deployed within these cities. These sensors are used for various applications, such as transportation, parking and weather forecasting. We propose an approach for the mapping of traffic sensors with route coordinates in order to analyze traffic conditions (e.g., level of congestion) on the roadways. We present an algorithm and provide two illustrative examples that cover all of the possible mapping scenarios. We also evaluate the performance of our proposed approach in terms of sensors' correct detection, missed detection and false detection on the routes. Our work can be used for the development of various smart city applications, such as traffic management and smart parking.
