Natural disasters, industrial accidents, technological disasters as well as terrorist attacks have raised a great attention to road traffic management in emergencies and disasters worldwide. The road system is the essential infrastructure for mobility and accessibility. It is important in daily life and especially in disasters and emergencies. Therefore, a successful road traffic management in such situations should minimize losses in life and goods as well as economical losses and assets through incident prevention, mitigation, preparedness, response and recovery. Based on this concern, the German Aerospace Center has been continuously undertaking the development of a real-time web-based decision support system within four R&D projects, WJT2005, Soccer2006, DELPHI and VABENE, since 2005. A pilot version of the new portal has already been established in the demonstration region Munich in 2007. This system mainly aims to - establish a shared online traffic information platform and decision-making support tool for the law enforcement and emergency services - use available traffic information as best as possible for online traffic monitoring and evaluation, and - provide accurate traffic forecasting for supporting the decision-making in traffic management.
