5642 Trafficware has released Version 2.6 of its ATMS.now central traffic management system, adding greater functionality with a new subscription-based parking detection capability and enabling transportation authorities to automate the collection of parking data.

The new parking detection module, using Trafficware’s patented wireless pod detection system, allows transportation agencies to aggregate this vehicle detection data into their central traffic management command centre.

ATMS.now 2.6 release includes an Edit Categories Selection in the central management software that matches what a technician sees at the street level cabinet intersection controller. For power data users, a new CSV export report will export the entire local volume/occupancy or split databases to an Excel or text file, while special database name labels have been added to the editing and view screens to provide greater descriptive ability in labelling files. The new release also features enhanced diagnostics and more than 25 other convenience and performance-enhancing additions.

ATMS.now that subscribe to Trafficware’s Software Maintenance Agreement will receive all features included in the base application free as part of the program.
