KYTZ
KnowYourTrafficZuber
🚦 A government-oriented traffic data infrastructure platform that collects anonymized vehicle movement data to build city-scale traffic intelligence for smarter planning, AI-powered analytics, and evidence-based mobility decisions.
🏙️ Cities know traffic congestion exists, but not why it happens, where exactly it happens, who is contributing to it, where vehicles are coming from, where they are going, and how traffic moves across the entire city throughout the day. 📷 Traditional cameras, road sensors, and manual surveys provide only point-in-time snapshots. The missing piece is continuous, large-scale vehicle movement data.
🚗 KYTZ turns participating vehicles into mobile traffic sensors. Instead of relying primarily on cameras and road sensors, it collects anonymized origin-destination journey data through a driver app. Over time, millions of journeys create a continuously updated Digital Traffic Movement Model that governments can use for planning, AI prediction, congestion management, and infrastructure decisions.
- 🚘 Drivers register vehicle type, category, and operating area in the KYTZ app.
- ▶️ Before a trip, driver presses START JOURNEY; after reaching destination, presses END JOURNEY.
- 📡 Background GPS movement data is batched and compressed to preserve battery and privacy.
- 🔒 Journeys are anonymized and aggregated into origin-destination matrices and traffic patterns.
- 🏛️ Government dashboard shows live traffic, volume, congestion corridors, historical patterns, and AI predictions.
