| Abstract | The goal of this paper is to investigate how sparse public transport data such as bus data might be used in evaluating congestion in urban areas and in providing better information for road users and traffic managers. With this aim we use the well known concept of a velocity field and, building on our previous work, we specifically show how velocity fields can be usefully reconstructed from sparse bus data. Buses provide good coverage of cities and, increasingly, are being equipped with satellite navigation devices and monitored in order to display their predicted arrival times to bus passengers. We have had access to a wealth of bus data for the city of Cambridge, England for some years. We describe these bus data and show how its specifics may be used in conjunction with other sources of data, such as OpenStreetMap, in order to reconstruct information on transport traffic flow dynamics. Finally, we consider examples in which we compare our knowledge of the traffic regimes with the outputs of the technique presented. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
