It is
said : Necessity is the Mother of Invention
Let us
rephrase : Essentiality is the Mother of Intervention
This is
in response to Odd / Even driving rule being experimented in Delhi from Jan 1
2016
Equally
applicable to any other city , threatened by vehicular emission pollution
This
solution will be named : PollSolve
It will
be in two parts , as follows :
#
VEHICLE BASED DEVICE
All
vehicles (existing and future registrations) to be fitted with a GPS locator (
compulsory )
Each of
this locator will carry Vehicle Number ( hard-coded )
A
software in Delhi Transport Department , will then , be able to track in real
time , movement of each vehicle ( 24*7 ) , on several computer screens
If a
Odd numbered vehicle is travelling on Even date , it will show up as a RED
colored dot on the screen and through linkage with RTO records ,an automatic
alert will be issued to the mobile phone of the nearest Traffic Police to catch
/ stop that vehicle and take that vehicle, off the road !
The owner
/ driver can take it back after one week of grounding !
This
technology is available , commercially and off - the - shelf
Should
not take more than 6 months to implement
#
MOBILE BASED APP
Each
citizen of Delhi will have to ( compulsorily ) download and install on his
smart phone , an App called : CarPool
He /
she will enter following data in the App :
*
Name / Gender / Aadhar Card No
*
Email Id / Mobile Number / Residence Address / Work-place Address
*
From / To ( in the morning ) / Starting Time of travel
*
From / To ( in the evening ) / Starting Time of travel
*
If owning a vehicle , then :
# Vehicle type : 2 - 3 - 4 wheeler
# Fuel type : Petrol / Diesel / Electric
# Vehicle Capacity : 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 persons (including driver )
# Vehicle Number :
# Vehicle Registration Date (to compute " Age " of vehicle )
# Serial Number of GPS locator fitted on vehicle ( must be unique / Mfrr
to take care )
# CarPool Number (Unique Serial No allotted by
App) : To be entered after joining a Pool
With
this data , software will analyze / display , a list containing names / contact
info of other citizens ( matched gender-wise ) , travelling on same ,
approximate " route " and the nearest pick-up points , on Google Map
Citizens
will then contact other vehicle-owners and form a CarPool
Then ,
they will enter their CarPool Number ( as mentioned above )The
software will reanalyze / redisplay the list if any entered data gets EDITED
later
After
compiling data about ONE BILLION actual cumulative travels undertaken by each
type of vehicle ( 2-3-4 wheeler ) , BIG DATA ANALYTICS software , will carry
out ,
*
Millions of permutations / combinations of " Car Pool Universes "
possible
*
Using ( updated version of ) " Karmarkar's Algorithm " , figure out
the optimum Car Pool Universe which minimizes the overall pollution level
in Delhi
*
Calculate for each citizen , the " LEAST POLLUTING ROUTE " based on
data compiled from the " Optimum Universe "
and send " Car Pooling Recommendation " to
each citizen thru CarPool app
This
could be somewhat like " Travelling Salesman Problem " in Linear
Programming ( - improved versions could be found in Fuzzy Logic / Neural
Network / Artificial Intelligence )
Given
the prevalent START-UP wave in India, any number of Indian Start Up companies
would be happy to take on this " Two Part " challenge and implement
in 6 months .
It is
the least expensive / permanent / replicable solution , suitable for the entire
World
All
that is required is a POLITICAL WILL and some genuine cooperation between Shri
Gopal Rai ( Delhi Govt ) and Shri Nitin Gadkari ( Central Govt )
It is
time to offer to the World , an INDIAN ANSWER to vehicular pollution
