Traffic congestion detection by use of satellites view

Traffic congestion in major cities is very common problem. Every modern city wants to handle this problem. Being stuck in traffic jam wastes so much time and money of citizens. Traffic congestion can be minimized by timely inform about its happening to the concerned department and also to incoming traffic. For this we proposed an approach in which we use satellites to detect cities traffic congestion on real time. This approach not only informs about congestion but also provides a broader view of cities traffic. Plenty of satellites are available around earth. High resolution video is taken from a specific point in space with satellites cameras. This video is further processed by using images processing techniques, and congestion is detected in real time. In result section we proved this idea successfully.
