Three-dimensional Transportation Networks

Three-dimensional transportation network is used for hubs (airports/railway stations), connecting roads, railways and aviation to coordinate the flow of various transportation modes and reduce traffic congestion.

    I.‍‌‍‍‌‍‌‍‍‌ Core Foundation: Data-Driven and 3D Digital Base

    One of the key factors in building the 3D road network is a single high-quality data repository and the spatial computing power to go with it.


    Data Governance and Security: The precision, consistency, and availability of the multi-source traffic data are the results of professional data governance of. Silos of data are torn down to create high-value data assets. At the same time, all-round security measures to data, e.g., encryption, desensitization, and access control are put in place to protect the compliant usage of data.


    BIM + GIS Integration Engine: Micro-level BIM (Building Information Modeling) and macro-level GIS (Geographic Information System) are intimately merged to construct a holographic 3D digital platform that depicts not only the internal structure of the road facilities but also the external geographical environment. Thus, a uniform spatio-temporal basis is available for refined modeling, spatial analysis, and visual display of the traffic network.


    Capability Open Platform: The cloud-native design is the basis for the services of processed data, analytical algorithms, and business functions. It provides capabilities like data sharing, an application marketplace, and visual development to facilitate the fast innovation and flexible deployment of higher-layer businesses.


    II. Core Application: 3D Digital Twin Cockpit

    Using data from the preceding layers, a digital twin cockpit serves as an example of how the physical traffic world can be interactively and dynamically mapped in a digital space.


    Panoramic Integrated Visualization:

    By employing 3D modeling technology, extremely accurate digital replication of the road surface, facilities, and the environment of the entire road section (for instance, a 90-kilometer expressway) is carried out with the purpose of creating a 3D real model that is both computable and describable.

    Information about the traffic operation status, incidents, and equipment conditions are included through data integration of various sensor types like video and radar. This information is presented in a 3D scenario in a three-dimensional way, thus getting "full-domain perception on a single map".


    Comprehensive Business Theme Overview:

    The main emphasis is put on the core business areas such as traffic flow, incidents, assets, and energy consumption, where multi-dimensional deep analysis and theme-specific visualization are performed within the 3D network.


    The delicate portrayal of the overall operation of expressway tunnels is done in an easily understandable way, thus providing managers with the needed data for their daily monitoring and scientific decision-making activities.


    Emergency Command and Simulation:

    For emergency situations, the command staff in a 2D-3D integrated scenario can pinpoint the incident location and even the surrounding area, showing the emergency resources, traffic flow, and possible dangers all together in an integrated way.


    They are able to perform real-time tracking and scheduling of the disposal and rescue process thus, the first help's execution is fast and safe.


    III. Intelligent Perception: Expressway Video Structuring System

    This assembly is the source of real-time data that is changeable and it helps in the visualization of the 3D traffic network.


    Core Function: The AI-based "Intelligent Vision Platform" is the main feature that generates in real-time the content structuring of a large number of expressway surveillance videos.


    Application Value: The real-time traffic simulation effect is achieved by extracting the information on dynamic targets such as vehicles and incidents and then integrating the rendering in the 3D model. The result is "changing the thousands of watching points into one all-seeing perspective and joining the thousands of road videos into one moving sequence". This gives the possibility for managers to follow the traffic trends visually without interruption in the 3D digital twin environment thus their capabilities for perception and management are improved to a great extent.


    IV. Practical Results

    As an example of a smart expressway project, it has been possible to完成3D modeling of 90-kilometer expressway and to carry out full-line operation through system construction. The system is a living organism that combines the static facilities with the dynamic traffic flow, thereby it more or less accomplishes the 3D intelligent control and management in a comprehensive way—from the macro road network situation down to the micro-level tunnel internal management. This is evidence of the great worth of the 3D traffic network in operational efficiency enhancement, scientific decision-making facilitation, and emergency response capacity improvement.
