Vehicle detection with speed, class and count in a single loop

Global Traffic Technologies (GTT), have added speed, class and count to detection capabilities to their Canoga 9000 series, in a single width four-channel traffic management card. Historically, two cards were needed to obtain the same information. Canoga includes Ethernet so it can connect to GTT’s central management software (CMS), which enables traffic engineers to access key data, run customised reports, and receive maintenance alerts—all in real time, all from a remote location.

542 Global Traffic Technologies (GTT), have added speed, class and count to detection capabilities to their Canoga 9000 series, in a single width four-channel traffic management card. Historically, two cards were needed to obtain the same information.

 Canoga includes Ethernet so it can connect to GTT’s central management software (CMS), which enables traffic engineers to access key data, run customised reports, and receive maintenance alerts—all in real time, all from a remote location.
 
Engineers can use the device to adjust timing for signalised intersections, to record state- and federal-mandated traffic counts, or just for a more accurate count of the number of vehicles on the road.
 
The new cards are easily interchanged with sensors already installed and can also be used to capture information about vehicles in parking lots, or information about bicyclists in bike lanes.

“The Canoga 9000 Series sets a new standard for traffic sensing technology,” said Tim Hall, GTT’s Market Development director. “With our innovative, single-loop technology, traffic engineers can use a single card to obtain information that traditionally requires two sets of cards and sensors. Our new technology provides more information with less guesswork, so engineers can make more accurate decisions that improve traffic flow and enhance safety.”

    The weigh in motion market remains especially buoyant and technological development continues to reflect this. Although there are major differences in operating philosophies, particularly between developed and developing countries, both the numbers of countries using Weigh In Motion (WIM) technology and the numbers of systems that they deploy are on the increase.

    Single-camera bi-directional speed enforcement can reduce the cost of enforcing speeding on two-way roads without repositioning the camera. Truvelo has received UK type-approval for a simultaneous bi-directional (SBD) enforcement camera, the D-Cam P digital, which can capture speeding motorist both those travelling towards and away from the camera. It is also in the process of carrying out the first installations of the D-Cam P in the UK.

    Wrong-way warning systems and advanced queue detection can help to reduce human error. They can also cut road accidents – and therefore road deaths, says Clearview Intelligence Where were nearly 1,800 deaths on the UK’s roads in 2018 – an average of five people dying each day. The largest single cause of serious injury is crashes at junctions (accounting for 33% of incidents), while the largest single cause of death was run-off road crashes (30%) “With vehicles increasingly being designed with saf

  • IP technology the route to efficient multi-agency control rooms
    February 1, 2012
    As IP-based technology makes its presence felt in the control room sector, it makes for greater economies of scale and also offers a migration path for many other traffic management technologies. So says Barco's Guy Van Wijmeersch. Efficient control room collaboration and decision-making is only possible if operators and decision-makers have easy and timely access to information. In many cases, that information also needs to be accessible to multiple users at the same time. This is certainly so in the case
