This work presents results for the three-dimensional displacement field at Tenerife Island calculated from campaign GPS and ascending and descending ENVISAT DInSAR interferograms. The goal of this work is to provide an example of the flexibility of the technique by fusing together new varieties of geodetic data, and to observe surface deformations and study precursors of potential activity in volcanic regions. Interferometric processing of ENVISAT data was performed with GAMMA software. All possible combinations were used to create interferograms and then stacking was used to increase signal-to-noise ratio. Decorrelated areas were widely observed, particularly for interferograms with large perpendicular baseline and large time span. Tropospheric signal was also observed which significantly complicated the interpretation. Subsidence signal was observed in the NW part of the island and around Mount Teide and agreed in some regions with campaign GPS data. It is expected that the technique will provide better results when more high quality DInSAR and GPS data is available

In this article we describe a method for automatically generating text summaries of data corresponding to traces of spatial movement in geographical areas. The method can help humans to understand large data streams, such as the amounts of GPS data recorded by a variety of sensors in mobile phones, cars, etc. We describe the knowledge representations we designed for our method and the main components of our method for generating the summaries: a discourse planner, an abstraction module and a text generator. We also present evaluation results that show the ability of our method to generate certain types of geospatial and temporal descriptions.

The airport taxi planning (TP) module is a decision tool intended to guide airport surface management operations. TP is defined by a flow network optimization model that represents flight ground movements and improves aircraft taxiing routes and schedules during periods of aircraft congestion. TP is not intended to operate as a stand‐alone tool for airport operations management: on the contrary, it must be used in conjunction with existing departing and arriving traffic tools and overseen by the taxi planner of the airport, also known as the aircraft ground controller. TP must be flexible in order to accommodate changing inputs while maintaining consistent routes and schedules already delivered from past executions. Within this dynamic environment, the execution time of TP may not exceed a few minutes. Classic methods for solving binary multi‐commodity flow networks with side constraints are not efficient enough; therefore, a Lagrangian decomposition methodology has been adapted to solve it. We demonstrate TP Lagrangian decomposition using actual data from the Madrid‐Barajas Airport

Daily life in urban centers has led to increasing and more demanding freight requirements. Manufacturers, retailers and other urban agents have thus tended towards more frequent and smaller deliveries, resulting in a growing use of light freight vehicles (<3.5 ton). This paper characterizes and analyzes urban freight distribution in order to generate new ways of understanding the phenomenon. Based on a case study of two different-sized Spanish cities using data from GPS, a vehicle observation survey and complementary driver's interviews, the authors propose a categorization of urban freight distribution. The results confirm GPS as a useful tool that allows the integration of dynamic traffic assignment data and diverse traffic operation patterns during different day periods, thereby improving delivery performance.

El avance y desarrollo de las nuevas tecnologías ha GPS sean cada vez más efectivos y precisos. En la actualidad son usados por miles de personas en una gran variedad de aplicaciones, siendo la competición una de ellas.Detrás del funcionamiento de estas pequeñas unidades juega un papel muy importante la telemetría, una tecnología que cada vez es más relevante en el mundo actual, y que gracias a las avances tecnológicos sus aplicaciones son cada vez mayores. En este Trabajo de Fin de Grado se diseñará Teller, un programa realizado en Erlang que mediante la telemetría y la tecnología actual realizará cálculos físicos de recorridos realizados en motocicleta, tales como velocidad o aceleración (tangencial y radial), además de clasificar los trayectos en tramos, dependiendo de si son curvas o rectas. Al mismo tiempo se realizará un estudio de precisión del dispositivo GPS, cotejando sus datos con los obtenidos por Teller. Por último, toda esta información se mostrará en un mapa para que el usuario pueda visualizarlo y que de esta forma sirva como herramienta de información y aprendizaje. The development of new technologies has contributed to the improvement of GPS devices, making them more effective and accurate. Nowadays they are used by thousands of people in a wide variety of applications like competitions. The technology that is behind the functionality of those devices is the telemetry, which is getting more and more important in the real world. In this thesis a new program called Teller will be designed. Made in Erlang, it will use telemetry so as to obtain new and valuable data from a motorcycle track. Examples of this type of data can be speed and acceleration (either tangential and radial) for instance. Besides, Teller will classify the track into segments, depending if it is a curve or a straight. At the same time a study will be carried out in order to know how accurate the GPS device is. This will be achieved by comparing the data retrieved by the device with the data calculated by Teller. Finally, all this information will be shown in a map, so the user can see information about his route in a visual way. xi

Changing factors (mainly traffic intensity and weather conditions) affecting road conditions require a suitable optimal speed at any time. To solve this problem, variable speed limit systems (VSL) ? as opposed to fixed limits ? have been developed in recent decades. This term has included a number of speed management systems, most notably dynamic speed limits (DSL). In order to avoid the indiscriminate use of both terms in the literature, this paper proposes a simple classification and offers a review of some experiences, how their effects are evaluated and their results This study also presents a key indicator, which measures the speed homogeneity and a methodology to obtain the data based on floating cars and GPS technology applying it to a case study on a section of the M30 urban motorway in Madrid (Spain).

Effective data summarization methods that use AI techniques can help humans understand large sets of data. In this paper, we describe a knowledge-based method for automatically generating summaries of geospatial and temporal data, i.e. data with geographical and temporal references. The method is useful for summarizing data streams, such as GPS traces and traffic information, that are becoming more prevalent with the increasing use of sensors in computing devices. The method presented here is an initial architecture for our ongoing research in this domain. In this paper we describe the data representations we have designed for our method, our implementations of components to perform data abstraction and natural language generation. We also discuss evaluation results that show the ability of our method to generate certain types of geospatial and temporal descriptions.

En el campo del motociclismo y el automovilismo de competición se debe disponer de tecnología que ayude en la conducción y el aprendizaje del piloto. La telemetría juega un papel que es clave en este aspecto. Gracias a GPS precisos y que ofrecen una gran variedad de información, el piloto puede observar cualquier defecto en su conducción. Sin embargo, la mayor parte de los pilotos que se dedican al motociclismo y el automovilismo de manera amater no puede permitirse la compra de estos dispositivos. A lo largo de este documento se explica el trabajo realizado para crear Teller. Teller es una aplicación que recoge los datos de un GPS de bajo coste, genera información mediante cálculos físicos realizados con Erlang y visualiza dicha información para los pilotos que quierenmejorar. Con esta aplicación se pretende ofrecer una alternativa barata de telemetría sin necesidad de gastarse el dinero en GPS precisos pero demasiado caros. ---ABSTRACT---In the field of motorcycling racing and motorsport technology should be available to assist in driving and learning from the pilot. Telemetry plays a key role in this regard. Thanks to accurate GPS which offer various information, the pilot can see any fault in his driving. However, most of pilots who engage motorcycling racing and motorsport in the amater way can not afford to purchase these devices. Throughout this document the work done to create Teller is explained. Teller is an application that collects data from a low cost GPS, it generates information by physical calculations made in Erlang and it displays this information for pilots who want to improve. This application aims to provide a cheap alternative of telemetry without spending money on accurate but expensive GPS.

The road transportation sector is responsible for around 25% of total man-made CO2 emissions worldwide. Considerable efforts are therefore underway to reduce these emissions using several approaches, including improved vehicle technologies, traffic management and changing driving behaviour. Detailed traffic and emissions models are used extensively to assess the potential effects of these measures. However, if the input and calibration data are not sufficiently detailed there is an inherent risk that the results may be inaccurate. This article presents the use of Floating Car Data to derive useful speed and acceleration values in the process of traffic model calibration as a means of ensuring more accurate results when simulating the effects of particular measures. The data acquired includes instantaneous GPS coordinates to track and select the itineraries, and speed and engine performance extracted directly from the on-board diagnostics system. Once the data is processed, the variations in several calibration parameters can be analyzed by comparing the base case model with the measure application scenarios. Depending on the measure, the results show changes of up to 6.4% in maximum speed values, and reductions of nearly 15% in acceleration and braking levels, especially when eco-driving is applied.
