For this week our group focused on the implementation of many of the ideas that we have previously been talking about. I focused on finally making use of the HERE Api system to actually achieve dynamic rerouting. I was able to get to the point where I can create a live server hosting the map data, which when given an origin, destination, and an intersection to avoid it will provide us with different sorts of routes that a car can take through traffic. In the future I hope to add more user functionality onto the server for the crash detection, as well as provide constantly updating simulation data for the operator. Just so that the operator will be aware of how traffic is flowing and the general trends that exist. There’s no point in rerouting if it just ends up causing even more delays in the long term.
