Privacy and safety aware traffic data generator

Data analysis is very helpful for decision making mechanism of government and private institutions, and also for new technological developments. It is possible to simulate real world traffic of moving objects and use resulting spatio-temporal data for various analysis. In this work, our behavior model of moving objects and location data generation method in urban area are presented. This model takes following relevant issues into consideration: city network, speed limits, weather, traffic density, privacy and safety. An urban area traffic generator, called PaSATDG, which implements our model is developed too. This tool is able to generate bulky trafic data with privacy and safety enforcements. Moreover, the tool has a personal navigation assistant component as well.
