A few pedestrians are crossing the busy intersection, which is dominated mostly by vehicles. Traffic lights are a representation of transportation infrastructure. 2.The flow of pedestrians and vehicles through the intersection as well as carbon-dioxide emissions from vehicles represent invisible information. 3.By knowing traffic and pedestrians flows, and their peaks and troughs throughout the day, we would be able to better program the traffic lights in order to cause less congestion and a healthier flow for citizens in order to increase levels of happiness.
