In road networks, [Formula: see text]-range nearest neighbor ([Formula: see text]-RNN) queries locate the [Formula: see text]-closest neighbors for every point on the road segments, within a given query region defined by the user, based on the network distance. This is an important task because the user's location information may be inaccurate; furthermore, users may be unwilling to reveal their exact location for privacy reasons. Therefore, under this type of specific situation, the server returns candidate objects for every point on the road segments and the client evaluates and chooses exact [Formula: see text] nearest objects from the candidate objects. Evaluating the query results at each timestamp to keep the freshness of the query answer, while the query object is moving, will create significant computation burden for the client. We therefore propose an efficient approach called a safe-region-based approach (SRA) for computing a safe segment region and the safe exit points of a moving nearest neighbor (NN) query in a road network. SRA avoids evaluation of candidate answers returned by the location-based server since it will have high computation cost in the query side. Additionally, we applied SRA for a directed road network, where each road network has a particular orientation and the network distances are not symmetric. Our experimental results demonstrate that SRA significantly outperforms a conventional solution in terms of both computational and communication costs.

In this paper we develop a new approach to directly detect crash hotspot intersections (CHIs) using two customized spatial weights matrices, which are the inverse network distance-band spatial weights matrix of intersections (INDSWMI) and the k-nearest distance-band spatial weights matrix between crash and intersection (KDSWMCI). This new approach has three major steps. The first step is to build the INDSWMI by forming the road network, extracting the intersections from road junctions, and constructing the INDSWMI with road network constraints. The second step is to build the KDSWMCI by obtaining the adjacency crashes for each intersection. The third step is to perform intersection hotspot analysis (IHA) by using the Getis–Ord Gi* statistic with the INDSWMI and KDSWMCI to identify CHIs and test the Intersection Prediction Accuracy Index (IPAI). This approach is validated by comparison of the IPAI obtained using open street map (OSM) roads and intersection-related crashes (2008–2017) from Spencer city, Iowa, USA. The findings of the comparison show that higher prediction accuracy is achieved by using the proposed approach in identifying CHIs.

Winter conditions create hazardous roads that municipalities work hard to maintain to ensure the safety of the travelling public. Targeting their efforts with effective network screening will help transportation managers address these problems. In our recent efforts, regression kriging was found to be a viable and effective network screening methodology. However, the study was constrained by its limited spatial extent making the reported results less conclusive and transferrable. In addition, our previous work implemented what has long been adopted in most of conventional studies—the Euclidean distance; however, use of the road network distance would, intuitively, result in further improving kriging estimates, especially when dealing with transportation problems. Therefore, this study improves upon our previous efforts by developing a more advanced kriging model; namely, network regression kriging using the entire state of Iowa with the significantly expanded road network. The transferability of the developed models is also explored to investigate its generalization potential. The findings based on various statistical measures suggest that the enhanced kriging model vastly improved the estimation performance at the cost of greater computational complexity and run times. The study also suggests that regional semivariograms better represent the true nature of the local variances, though an overall model may still function adequately if higher fidelity is not required.

Proposed a new index structure, named MG2R*, can efficiently store and retrieve the past, present and future positions of network-constrained moving objects. It is a two-tier structure. The upper is a MultiGrid-R*-Tree (MGRT for short) that is used to index the road network. The lower is a group of independent R*-Tree. Each R*-Tree is relative to a route in the road network, can index the spatiotemporal trajectory of the moving objects in the road. Moreover, moving objects query is implemented based on this index structure. It compared to other index structures for road-network-based moving objects, such as MON-Tree, the experimental results shown that the MG2R* can effectively improve the query performance of the spatio-temporal trajectory of network-constrained moving objects.

Abstract: This research aims to analyze the impact of Janti Flyover Construction toward the growth of layout at Janti Urban Area, including structured space, open space, and linkage. Method used for data collecting are observation, air photograph monitoring, and interview, whereas the analysis method is qualitative description, which is the superimposed method of two layers, that are the layout condition before and after flyover construction. The result shows that the impact of Janti Flyover construction can be seen on building mass (solid), the increasing number of open spaces, including the road network, parking place, and park, whereas the relation between spaces, visually and structurally, can be seen on the growth of buildings which have new shapes and styles, therefore the performance of the overall building does not have a proportional shape. Considering Janti Street at the collective relation, its role is getting stronger as the main frame road network.Keywords: Flyover construction, layout changing, Janti AreaAbstrak: Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pengaruh pembangunan Jalan Layang Janti terhadap perkembangan tata ruang Kawasan Janti, meliputi ruang terbangun, ruang terbuka, serta hubungan antar ruang (“linkage”). Metode pengumpulan data dilakukan melalui observasi, pengamatan foto udara, dan wawancara; sedangkan metode analisis melalui deskripsi secara kualitatif yang berupa “superimposed method” dari dua lapisan kondisi lahan, yakni kondisi tata ruang sebelum dan sesudah pembangunan jalan layang. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pengaruh pembangunan Jalan Layang Janti terdapat pada massa bangunan (“solid”), pertambahan ruang terbuka yang berupa jaringan jalan, parkir, dan taman; sedangkan pada hubungan antar ruang ̶ secara visual dan struktural ̶ yakni tumbuhnya bangunan dengan bentuk dan gaya baru, sehingga bentuk tampilan bangunan secara keseluruhan tidak proporsional. Pada hubungan kolektif, Jalan Janti semakin kuat perannya sebagai kerangka utama jaringan jalan.Kata kunci : Pembangunan jalan layang, tata ruang, Kawasan Janti
