Abstract:
Trafficability is a global term which refers to the ability of ground to support
movement of vehicles through a given region. This project is aimed at developing
a software-based system that provides an automated method to determine and
forecast the trafficability of selected topographical regions. The system will use a
variety of data to perform this analysis such as vector map layers, attributes of
the vector data in the form of a database as well as various criteria such as
vehicle type, soil type, area information and weather data to be applied for
trafficability analysis.
