Abstract This paper surveys the technologies available for constructing a pervasive, national‐scale road pricing system. It defines the different types of road pricing, the methods by which a vehicle’s position can be determined, and then examines possible pricing regimes in the context of their technological requirements and implications. The issue of enforcement and the distribution of pricing policies are considered, and further complexities are outlined. An examination of the security aspects of such systems is made, focusing particularly on the need to ensure privacy using technological, rather than solely procedural, methods. The survey concludes that a pervasive, national‐scale deployment is unlikely to be technically achievable in the short‐term. 相似文献

In France, Germany and Spain, the availability of computer‐generated itineraries to travellers in the street is still very limited, though growing slowly. Although many French towns have an effective passenger information system via Minitel, which will calculate itineraries, this is available only from the home. The vast majority of decisions about routes for journeys by urban public transport are still made using the traditional forms of spatial information abundantly displayed at bus stops and in vehicles: usually a map of the network and diagrammatic maps of individual bus or underground lines. Unfortunately a map of the whole network is often too complicated to yield the desired information easily. Alternatively the traveller may have the difficult task of comparing several diagrammatic maps of the individual lines departing from that bus stop, none of which alone can answer his spatial query: which bus lines, if any, go to my destination? The priority for the application of the computer should be the use of a geographic information system to generate automatically two types of less‐complicated map. The ‘stop‐specific route map’ shows on one piece of paper the routes of all buses from that stop, excluding of course the portions before the stop. The ‘zone map’ shows only the bus lines which serve a specific limited zone of the city, including at a reduced scale the portions extending out to their various destinations beyond the limits of the zone itself. 相似文献

The paper explores some of the key ocean-atmosphere processes relevant to the themes of ‘global warming“ and ‘sea level rise“ addressing some of issues that form the basis of the science. It is shown that both processes as well as the data used to characterise such processes demonstrate that a) there is no such thing as a single global sea level and b) changes in extreme storminess are not uniform worldwide. Instead, trends in storminess (including Asian typoon and Atlantic hurricane activity) exhibit marked regional variability with strong regional signature linked to episodes of major El Niño and La Niña activity. Similarly, satellite data demonstrates that whereas some ocean areas have recently experienced sea level rise caused principally by thermal expansion effects, other ocean areas have been subject to cooling and sea level lowering. This account provides an introductory account that discusses the rationale for understanding the regional variability in the nature of coastal flood risk to the world’s ports and harbours. 相似文献

Estimates of the numbers of trips likely to be made by individuals and of the modes of transport that will be available to them for those trips are provided by the trip production model. The objective of the work described in this paper was to investigate the geographical stability of the trip production model by comparing the numbers of trips estimated by the model when using national rather than local data. The 1972/3 National Travel Survey was used as the national data. Household interview survey data from the transportation studies of Lincoln, Sheffield/Rotherham, South East Dorset and Bristol were the local data sources. Three home based trip purposes are modelled; 24 hour work, 24 hour shop, 24 hour other.The models calibrated from national and local data perform similarly provided both operate with local trip rates. The car ownership sub-model with national parameters produces similar forecasts to the models with local parameters. There are probably real differences in household trip rates for some trip purposes between urban areas. 相似文献
