标题：The Application of Modern ICT in Increase of the Road Traffic Safety Level in Terms of Applicability of the Interdependence of Global Positioning System (Assisted GPS) and Dedicated Geographic Information System (GIS)
摘要：In order to promote traffic safety,and specifically in the prevention of accidents on the roads, modern standards and procedures require the construction,constant monitoring and updating the database of geospatial data of importance for the spatial and temporal distribution,an analysis of the traffic accidents causes and consequences and the creation of an appropriate response to the traffic risk arising from road’s factor as a geospatial entity. One of the possibilities for meeting the said requirements is the use of GPS technology. Constant monitoring and topographic inventory of changes in the domain of exploitation and technical roads features on the digital geotopographic materials in some of the GIS environment is one of the requirements,standards and procedures for the traffic risk management,but also for creation of a part of the national infrastructure of geospatial data on the principle of interoperability. This paper presents the characteristics of GPS device GeoExplorer® 2008,produced by U.S. Company Trimble,which integrates GPS receiver and a portable computer with the Windows Mobile operating system, and thus represents a functional,light,portable and durable device for field work,with the range of applications for geospatial data mapping and updating in a various and primarily in mobile GIS applications. GIS is a set of software tools,which enable the analysis of different types of data associated with geographic maps. Data on current road conditions and technical traffic control collected by mentioned device shall form the basis for filling in a database in dedicated, stationary GIS applications as a support system part for the traffic safety management.
