Lithuanian traffic monitoring system (LTTMS) based on Android

Abstract

The number of vehicles is growing exponentially all over the world. Therefore, spreading a real-time information to commuters is necessary. Recently, the GPS availability on smartphones and abundance of license plate recognition algorithms made a mobile phone-based traffic monitoring system highly convenient. In this paper we will introduce a transportation monitoring system for Lithuania. A country which is lacking a reliable traffic application capable of generating traffic data, informing users about the situation on the road and helping to prevent crimes.
