Patterns of Life
Park Vehicle Patterns
.gif)
The Gif on the above shows the daily patterns of park vehicles as they gow through the day. It seems to be very routined in the morning where they take specific paths and traverse them more as the hours go by. In the midday a lot of other paths come up indicating that they possibly try and cover most of the corners of the park. At night they fall back to the usual pattern they started during the day.
- They too take the very popular path of traversing through general-gate 7 -> general-gate 4 -> general-gate 1 -> ranger-stop 2 -> ranger-stop 0 -> general-gate 2
- The paths taken are fixed and do not cross illegally over the reserves
Car/Motorcycle Patterns
The gif above shows motor vehicle patterns. The first few hours of the day show no change in path. Similar paths are taken throughout. Hoever as the hours go by the park gets crowded with paths appearing now and then.
- A very popular path is general-gate 7 -> general-gate 4 -> general-gate 1 -> ranger-stop 2 -> ranger-stop 0 -> general-gate 2
- Some cars/Motor vehicles take a step further and travel to camping 1 through general-gate 0
- Cars and Motor vehicles do not abide by rules and regulations too much. There are paths taken that cross the reserve without there being a fixed road or without having passes through a gate. These are the "fishy paths".
- One of the paths taken by a car/motor vehicle goes from entrance 1 directly through to ranger-stop 1. This is extremely fishy as cars and vehicles need to pass through gate 2 which is restricted to public and only open to park vehicles. (Seen at hour 10 of the day)
- In an another instance towards the end of the day at hour 23 there is sudden rise in frequency of vehicles who go from general gate 1 to entrance 4
4 Axel Truck and above Patters
This gif shows the daily patterns of 4 Axels and above trucks. These are believed to belong to the reserve again owing to the fixed visible paths they rtraverse much like the park vehicles. They could be contractors or so.
- general-gate 7 -> general-gate 4 -> general-gate 1 -> ranger-stop 2 -> ranger-stop 0 -> general-gate 2 this is common path for these kind of vehicles too
- Between hours 2-6, these trucks traverse a unique path. They go through entrance 3 -> Gate 6 -> Gate 5 -> General-gate5 -> gate 3 -> Range-stop 3
3 Axel Trucks
This gif shows the patterns of 3 Axel Trucks througout the day.
- These trucks seem to belong to the public and are frequent visitors in camping areas. They are perhaps camper vans.
- These trucks too travel the popular path general-gate 7 -> general-gate 4 -> general-gate 1 -> ranger-stop 2 -> ranger-stop 0 -> general-gate 2
- Unlike cars and motor vehicles, these trucks are more disciplined and you do not get to see spikes in frequencies.
3 Bus
- These 3 Axel Buses are very similar to the 4 axel trucks. they too have fixed paths and of course general-gate 7 -> general-gate 4 -> general-gate 1 -> ranger-stop 2 -> ranger-stop 0 -> general-gate 2 being one of them. Their frequency of travel throughout the day remains pretty much constant without much variations.
2 Axel truck
These trucks again perhaps belong to the public. The density of their visits are very less during the day. However there is a sudden rise in visits in the last two hours of the day (hour 34 and hour 0) when disctinctive travelling patterns are formed. These could indicate something fishy.
- The triangle at general-gate 7, general-gate 4 and camping 4 sites at hour 23
- At hour 0, the sudden congregation of vehicles from the northern parts trying to make a "dash" to the southwest gate of entrance 4
2 Axel Bus
2 Axel buses yet again have patterns similar to the 3 Axel Bus and 4 axel and above trucks.
