High-Level Project Summary
We plan to create a system that will depict the traffic on the virtual platform as realistically as possible and allow to make changes.The system will prompt how effective the change is after implying it. Modifications can be made both mechanically and by the system’s artificial intelligence.

Detailed Project Description
When driving, we often think about a few issues, such as;
• how have traffic control authorities determined currently available solutions?
• how to change the rules of the road to ensure the rapid flow of vehicles and reduce the level of congestion
• how to evaluate the effectiveness of new ideas?
Getting the answers to these questions is the main goal of our product.
We plan to create a system that will depict the traffic on the virtual platform as realistically as possible and allow to make changes.
The system will prompt how effective the change is after implying it. Modifications can be made both mechanically and by the system’s artificial intelligence. The product will allow you to avoid real-time traffic improvements and test them on a virtual platform.
The inserted data in the simulation platform will help to understand what kind of changes are required to cut off the flows in the system, such as closing right or left side of the street, making it one-way street or wise versa, changing the traffic lights, etc. We change those flows, evaluating the status quo and comparing to the initial state. We have different coefficients which help as on the way of evaluation. If the change obvious in the simulation, we assume that it will make changes in the real life as well. We consider all the factor possible such as lines, traffic light, drivers’ behavior etc. After that we will take the data from satellites and will compare with simulation.
The target group of the users of the product will be the authorized bodies who regulate traffic.
Given the difficulties in regulating traffic in the world, we can state that the product has a wide range of opportunities to enter international markets.
In the next year we plan to work on product creation testing and find the first buyer in Armenia.
The further visions of the product are: real-time tracking of traffic flow, changing of rules, enabling open movement for ambulances and other vehicles, designing routes for public transportation.
Space Agency Data
We were inspired by the following source:

Hackathon Journey
The hackathon was really interesting. At the same time was really tough because we had just two days to use the whole data, which the agencies were providing us, but the experience is very unusual and we hope to be able to continue working on the project because during these two days we formed and
Think about a lot of things which we didn't think before the satellites and data from satellites can help us to figure out the simulation we have about the traffic and hopefully to make the better outcome and projects eventually.
