- This paper presents a new intelligent location-aware data aggregation mechanism for real-time observation, estimation, and efficient dissemination of any kind of road traffic information using vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs). The presented mechanism uses spatiotemporal database indexing providing the location context without the use of global positioning systems. Intelligent passive clustering and adaptive broadcasting are used to minimize the number of exchanged messages and packet collisions. The performance of the new mechanism is evaluated using OMNET++/Sumo simulations. The mechanism is generic and can be used for exchange of any kind of data in ad hoc network of moving nodes
