Traffic Visualization Dashboard

Abstract

The Traffic Visualization Dashboard project, led by the Virginia Tech Transportation Institute (VTTI), is a project created last semester by a team of students that seeks to improve the accessibility and user-friendliness of the Integration Traffic Simulation Tool. The aim of last semester’s project is to improve the usability of the simulator by creating a comprehensive visualization dashboard. This dashboard would take complex raw data and transform it into intuitive, meaningful visualizations, allowing users to gain insights into traffic behavior and patterns.

Description

Currently, the dashboard contains some key features such as: a user authentication and login system, a file collection upload mechanism to populate the database, and a base visualization environment that loads automatically upon selecting a data collection. After meeting with the client, Professor Mohamed Farag, the proposed updates interactive dashboard will contain a second-by-second simulation review that can display the plain data and a new graph visualization that displays the change in metrics over time, new navigation/help features that will allow easier usability of the system, and updates to the login/landing page.
