• Resumen

  • Traffic in urban environments vary significantly depending on the areas of the city and the time of day. Nowadays, thanks to the large number of GPS devices that are integrated in all kinds of devices, it is possible to make a quantitative analysis of traffic. This contribution presents an application developed to analyse this information in a simple way and with a visual representation. One of its main advantages is that it is adaptable to any city in the world, as its internal algorithms adapt to the available data are presenting and adjusting it to the traffic through the city. This is done by extracting information directly from the data provided by GPS devices moving around the city. In addition, an analysis of the execution times of all application processes is presented to determine which parts involve a higher execution cost and determine the overall scalability of the application.
