Traffic information system
A method of evaluating the driving behavior in a vehicle. The method includes determining values of a plurality of parameters of the operation of a first vehicle in a first road segment, determining values of the plurality of parameters for one or more second vehicles in a second road segment having similar properties to those of the first road segment, comparing the determined values of the first vehicle and the one or more second vehicles and providing an evaluation of the driving behavior of the first vehicle, responsive to the comparison.
1. A method for generating warnings for a driver of a vehicle, comprising the steps of:
receiving data from one or more sensors or one or more input ports which receive operational data from mechanisms of the vehicle;
processing the data to remove unnecessary data;
generating a list of warnings by searching the data for events that require providing a warning to the driver;
reviewing the list of warnings to determine which warnings are to be provided to a driver; and
providing one or more of the warnings to the driver.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the unnecessary data comprises one or more of consecutive measurements of similar values, low value data, low accuracy data, and acceleration values which do not affect a speed of the vehicle.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein step of processing the data to remove unnecessary data is performed in parallel with step of searching the data for events.
4. A method for generating warnings for a driver of a vehicle, comprising the steps of:
receiving data from one or more sensors or one or more input ports which receive operational data from mechanisms of the vehicle;
generating a list of warnings by searching the data for events that require providing a warning to the driver;
reviewing the list of warnings to determine which warnings are to be provided to a driver; and
providing one or more of the warnings to the driver,
wherein step of searching the data for events is based on control station data received from a control station.
5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the control station data comprises weather forecast data or geographical data.
6. A method for generating warnings for a driver of a vehicle, comprising the steps of:
receiving data from one or more sensors or one or more input ports which receive operational data from mechanisms of the vehicle;
generating a list of warnings by searching the data for events that require providing a warning to the driver;
reviewing the list of warnings to determine which warnings are to be provided to a driver; and
providing one or more of the warnings to the driver,
wherein a predetermined number of warnings are provided to the driver within a predetermined amount of time.
7. A system for generating warnings for a driver of a vehicle, comprising:
a monitoring system; and
one or more sensors or one or more input ports in communication with the monitoring system, wherein the one or more input ports receive operational data from mechanisms of the vehicle, and wherein the monitoring system:
receives data from the one or more sensors or the one or more input ports;
processes the data to remove unnecessary data;
generates a list of warnings by searching the data for events that require providing a warning to the driver;
reviews the list of warnings to determine which warnings are to be provided to a driver; and
provides one or more of the warnings to the driver.
8. The system of claim 7 , wherein the unnecessary data comprises one or more of consecutive measurements of similar values, low value data, low accuracy data, and acceleration values which do not affect a speed of the vehicle.
9. The system of claim 7 , wherein step of processing the data to remove unnecessary data is performed in parallel with step of searching the data for events.
10. A system for generating warnings for a driver of a vehicle, comprising:
a monitoring system; and
one or more sensors or one or more input ports in communication with the monitoring system, wherein the one or more input ports receive operational data from mechanisms of the vehicle, and wherein the monitoring system:
receives data from the one or more sensors or the one or more input ports;
generates a list of warnings by searching the data for events that require providing a warning to the driver;
reviews the list of warnings to determine which warnings are to be provided to a driver; and
provides one or more of the warnings to the driver,
wherein step of searching the data for events is based on control station data received from a control station.
11. The system of claim 10 , wherein the control station data comprises weather forecast data or geographical data.
12. A system for generating warnings for a driver of a vehicle, comprising:
a monitoring system; and
one or more sensors or one or more input ports in communication with the monitoring system, wherein the one or more input ports receive operational data from mechanisms of the vehicle, and wherein the monitoring system:
receives data from the one or more sensors or the one or more input ports;
generates a list of warnings by searching the data for events that require providing a warning to the driver;
reviews the list of warnings to determine which warnings are to be provided to a driver; and
provides one or more of the warnings to the driver,
wherein the monitoring system provides a predetermined number of warnings to the driver within a predetermined amount of time.
