Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to describe the application of the GPS/Arc/GIS telecommunication System in transport and traffic to identify the accident blackspot locations in the city of Pristina, Kosovo. It is also outlined the basics of GPS (Global Positioning System)–GIS (Geographic Information System) technology and the application of this technology in the research area. Further, the analysis are made of the application of GPS-GIS technology in traffic and transport with possibilities for future use of this technology for the municipality of Pristina. In this paper, the maps have been made with GPS data and have been compared with the conventional way of accident records. Here is shown how GPS/Arc/GIS combination gives the accurate black spot identification, rather than relying on assumed data for the location.
