Abstract
Smart Cities is a vision driven by the availability of governmental data that fosters many challenging applications. One of them is the management of inconsistent traffic regulations, i.e., the handling of inconsistent traffic signs and measures in urban areas such as wrong sign posting, or errors in data acquisition in traffic sign administration software. We investigate such inconsistent traffic scenarios and formally model traffic regulations using a logic-based approach for traffic signs and measures, and logical theories describe emerging conflicts on a graph-based street model. Founded on this model, we consider major reasoning tasks including consistency testing, diagnosis, and repair, and we analyze their computational complexity for different logical representation formalisms. Our results provide a basis for an ongoing implementation of the approach.
