Abstract:

A digital twin traffic management system at road intersection was established to effectively regulate the traffic state of the road network. The core elements and theoretical system of the digital twin model of road intersection were described from six aspects: the theory and the model construction, assembly, integration, management, verification and correction. The operation mechanism of the model and the key technologies of real-time interaction between man, vehicle, road and environment were analyzed from two aspects of the traffic element management and the operation process control. The traffic elements and the intersection operation status were identified in real time based on machine vision; The construction technology was analyzed for the management system based on “virtual control reality”. The results show that this method can accurately identify and simulate the traffic elements and operation state of the road intersection, create a digital window for relevant departments to efficiently adjust the traffic state of the road network, and provide data support for automatic driving.

Key words: intelligent transportation, traffic management system, digital twins, road intersection, virtual control of reality, machine vision
