CBS Radio uses TrafficLand service to deliver real-time traffic video

US live video aggregator TrafficLand is to supply its video management technology (VMC) to CBS Radio, providing regional news operation centres and individual radio stations with 24-hour access and the ability to monitor rush hour patterns, traffic bottlenecks and how incidents affect traffic conditions. The VMC service also lets users set up multi-camera displays in logical groupings that can be stored for repeat use and viewed as needed for quick reference updates. The TrafficLand VMC service provides in

US live video aggregator 1964 TrafficLand is to supply its video management technology (VMC) to CBS Radio, providing regional news operation centres and individual radio stations with 24-hour access and the ability to monitor rush hour patterns, traffic bottlenecks and how incidents affect traffic conditions.  The VMC service also lets users set up multi-camera displays in logical groupings that can be stored for repeat use and viewed as needed for quick reference updates.


The TrafficLand VMC service provides integrated access to real-time video from over 20,000 state and local Department of Transportation traffic cameras across the US through a specialised interface that was built by TrafficLand for traffic reporters and first responders to improve situational awareness.

    The effect of moving objects on the electromagnetic landscape set up by cellular telephony networks can be detected and interpreted to give real-time traffic data across large geographical areas at low cost. Here, we revisit the Celldar concept. Global economic downturn has pushed public-sector agencies, transport administrations among them, to push even harder for cost efficiencies. Unfortunately, when it comes to transport safety and efficiency the public sector often has to work up to a cost rather than

    Collecting speed and travel time data without using roadside infrastructure could offer new possibilities to cash-strapped road authorities. Streaming video may be useful for traffic controllers to monitor incidents and automatic number plate recognition may be required for enforcement, but neither are necessary for many ITS functions. For instance travel times, tailbacks, percentage of vehicles turning, origin and destination analysis can all be done using Bluetooth and/or WI-Fi sensors and without video o
