Abstract
This thesis was commissioned by the City of Rovaniemi. The purpose of the thesis was to create a guidebook for the City of Rovaniemi employees for the traffic sign updating work. The purpose of the manual was to familiarize the reader with traffic sign visualization and updating work using QGIS software.
The thesis was done during the summer internship with the City of Rovaniemi's Spatial Information and Site Services. The thesis study focused on the changes brought about by the New Road Traffic Act in the maintenance of the register of traffic signs. The Act obliges municipalities to maintain a traffic sign register. The data was collected on the national DigiRoad-register. The QGIS-software was used to create spatial information and to guide its use in updating traffic signs. The source of the spatial data was the information and design images provided by the contractors, as well as the objects photographed with the camera itself.
This thesis describes the history of traffic signs, the use of traffic signs and the process of updating traffic signs. This thesis includes the description of the study process, a theory section and presentation of the output.
