LARGE CITIES ROAD TRAFFIC SELF-SIMILARITY RESEARCH

Abstract

The problem of estimating and analyzing the density of road traffic on the signs of self-similarity (fractality) is considered on the example of several regions of London. Experimental data includes quantitative data of road traffic for the period of 10-15 years of occupancy of different cities’ areas and optimized binary image representations of geographical plans of city traffic development. Quantitative traffic data was analyzed for heterogeneity. The images of the corresponding areas are analyzed using Box Count and LCFD methods.
