Popis: The city of Batna is an important crossroads between coastal cities and the far south. It is also an axis linking East to West across the highlands due to its valuable geographical location and its high demographic increase. As a result, traffic flow problems related mainly to the growing vehicle fleet, as well as the characteristics of the road network and the traffic plan applied, have generated increased needs for motorized travel. It is therefore interesting to establish a diagnosis of the current functioning of the road network in the city of Batna, for more effective management and to help planners anticipate the expected problems. This work will integrate an approach based on the association of the digital database with the use of Geomatics techniques (techniques based on the use of Geographic Information Systems) which can provide a powerful tool for better urban mobility.
