Abstract
We describe the techniques for the extraction of the microscopic empirical data from high frame-rate videos of the traffic flows in Singapore. Such data include accelerations, velocities, headways and approach velocities. Following the discussions and the proposal from A General Scheme for Deterministic Microscopic Traffic Models. Part I: Theoretical Construction, we aggregate the collected microscopic empirical data by the proper sampling and the averaging of the unimportant factors influencing the driving behaviours, and present some of the tentative results in mapping the master model for the deterministic microscopic traffic models.
