Design Of Route Finding For Addis Ababa City

Abstract

Addis Ababa, the administrative and financial capital of Ethiopia is experiencing continued growth and change. Enabling change is more complex and has many results that need to be optimized and balanced by promoting sustainable growth. Road traffic congestion is a major problem in urban area of both developing and developed countries. The traffic congestion is often intensified by drivers habitually following the same routes and there is no information about status of the road. Route finder information, optimum vehicle routing system that takes traffic density into system can be a possible solution to this problem. Theoretically, if the driver keeps the same driving mode, the shortest path will cost the shortest time, but in reality, the traffic environment is complex and the driving speed is variable thus the shortest path is probably not the fastest path. The normal expectation of route choice is that a path between an origin and a destination will be selected (in advance) so as to minimize the distance and/or time required. Less often discussed are the decisions that motorists make while driving about which roads to use as a result of their own perceptions of the traffic situation. The effect of traffic congestion on the study area are delay movement, accident, inability to forecast travel time, fuel consumption, road rage and environmental pollution. Shortest or quickest best route analysis is one of the many web mapping service currently available. For route finding determining shortest distance and traffic congestion are the big problem of Addis Ababa city because of that identifying traffic congestion are the best solution. For the traffic management, vehicles detection is the critical step. In this research we have designed quickest route to destination for Addis Ababa city and also able to detect objects with accuracy by 97.47%
