Every year, traffic jams get worse as more and more vehicles fill the roads, causing delays for drivers. The solution to this problem is the implementation of Smart Transportation in Smart City which can determine the best route for drivers. To create this system, the You Only Look Once version 8 (YOLOv8) algorithm is used to count the number of vehicles in CCTV footage, while a Recurrent Neura…
Every year, the BKKBN website for South Sumatra Province experiences development from the center without conducting a direct survey of the website's feasibility with its users.
