Abstract

This article focuses on the creation of graphical interface which allows to define any points of vehicle paths. The data obtained are then applied to create one´s own driving cycle. This cycle compared to standard driving cycles includes additional parameters obtained to increase the accuracy of calculations. Information is used to create a data file on the basis of which the terrain profile of particular route of a driving cycle shall be determined. This is then followed by the actual data regarding traffic on our chosen route. A driving cycle defined this way will help to increase the accuracy of calculation of the energy performance of an electric car.
