Abstract

This project is to develop an online traffic information which provides drivers with
online traffic conditions like accidents, roadworks and traffic jams. It is believed that
XML is suitable since it is designed to describe and focus on data, especially structured
data.
The Extensible Markup Language (XML), which is derived from Standard Generalized
Markup Language (SGML), is a simple, flexible text format, Unicode-base metalanguage:
a language for defining markup languages. XML is not limited by any
programming language, operating system or software vendor. By being platform independent,
XML can provide means for achieving interoperability between different
programming platform and operating systems.
The following outcomes have been achieved:
1. A graphical display section consists of map of Singapore with incident icon like
traffic light spoilt, accident and road works. Each of these icons consist an XML
document.
2. A search engine which requires the end-user to input parameters like road name
and date. Results are then displayed from the search and the end-user clicks on
the required link to display the XML document.
