Summary: | First, this project summarizes the basic information about park connector networks
(PCNs) in Singapore and analyzes the role of PCNs in daily transportation
and exercise. By comparing five common cycling applications on the market,
the conclusion is that Google Maps is more suitable for daily cycling or
walking navigation than specialized software.
In terms of results, first of all, a simple website introducing PCN was developed
by combining the Google Maps platform and Keyhole Markup Language
(KML). The biggest highlight of the website is the embedded Google Maps
PCN static map. The second is to develop two cycling or walking applications,
based on the Google Maps platform and the OSM platform respectively. A
route planning application based on the Google Maps platform, you can plan a
cycling route by inputting the starting point and destination. For route planning
based on the OSM platform, you can directly click on the map on the screen
to select the starting point and destination, and then plan a cycling or walking
route, while PCN roads can be displayed directly on the interface.
Finally, the satellite resolution problem is analyzed from the perspective of road
extraction from remotely sensed images, and three current common road data
extraction methods are also analyzed, and it is concluded that cycling data feedback
and app design should still be used to solve the problem for PCN in
Singapore. |
