Abstract

Abstract: The impact of natural disasters and other adverse events on road infrastructure leads to a partial reduction or complete renunciation of its working capacity. Currently, there is no online-based information system to disclose and manage traffic in the event of a problem or disruption of a transport segment from the road infrastructure. The main purpose of the paper is to present a common methodology for designing a cloud-based online information system for road infrastructure monitoring and traffic management in disasters. The methodology of the information system is based on traditional geographic information system (GIS) solutions, Web-based technologies and GPS navigation systems.
