Case Study: Smart Traffic Management System (STMS)
The city of NeoMetro is implementing a Smart Traffic Management System (STMS) to optimize traffic flow, improve safety, and reduce congestion using AI-powered sensors and real-time analytics. The system will manage traffic signals, vehicle violations, and emergency routes while storing essential data for decision-making and planning.
Database Requirements:
Traffic Intersections: Each intersection has a unique ID, location, and traffic sensor data.
Traffic Signals: Stores signal timing and control settings at each intersection.
Vehicle Violations: Records violations, including license plate, type of violation, and penalty.
Emergency Routes: Manages priority access for ambulances and fire trucks.
Table Description:
INTERSECTION represents traffic junctions, each with a unique ID, location, sensor data to monitor congestion, and signal status for traffic control.
VEHICLE records passing vehicles, identified by their registration number, type (e.g., car, truck), and owner details.
VIOLATION_RECORD tracks traffic violations, linking each to a vehicle, specifying the type of offense, penalty, and time of occurrence.
EMERGENCY_ROUTE manages designated routes for emergency vehicles, linking them to intersections, specifying vehicle type, and updating clearance status.
Activity 1: Draw a detailed ER diagram
You can use the description in the case study for the ER diagram.
Activity 2: Write Specification from Entity Relationship Diagram
Compose the operational guidelines for the Entity-Relationship Diagram in activity 1. Exclude attribute descriptions and focus on specifying all cardinalities, participation constraints, and identifying strong and weak relationships. Please use plain English rather than technical database terminology.
