290 Aldis has announced the latest release of the GridSmart solution for video vehicle detection and traffic data collection. One of the most visible new features of the GridSmart 3.2 is the replay feature that allows users to record and playback image data complete with information on zone presence and signal state. Even in the replay mode, users are still able to take advantage of the virtual pan-tilt-zoom feature and other standard GridSmart capabilities. This feature is useful for traffic engineers wishing to review traffic patterns and driver behaviour during certain times of day, special events or other incidents.

The optional GridSmart Data Module has new improved report templates, as well as a new incident report to provide statistics on illegal turning movements and red-light runs. Also available in the module is a Raw Data Export feature that allows GridSmart data to be exported in an open format for use within another system for traffic simulation or modelling. Another new feature is automatic export to USB from the GridSmart Central Processing Unit (CPU), as well as automatic data-import from USB within the GridSmart Data Module.

Whatever your personal take on the data, the effect of these accidents can be felt indirectly too. News of c
