RealTraffic Technologies has launched RTTNet, a new video analytics software that allows any surveillance video camera to function as an accurate and reliable traffic sensor.

RTTNet easily integrates into any existing camera network and measures speed and flow in real-time on a lane by lane basis. The technology adapts to any PTZ-platform camera movements. It not only detects the camera's movement, but also automatically relocates the pre-defined detection zones, when the operator returns it near its initial position.

The data, analysed by the software, is transmitted as traffic maps and data files that can then be seen by road users via Internet, PDAs, mobile phones or GPS navigation systems.

Tests conducted in the Montreal area and near Washington D.C. with live video feeds from traffic cameras showed that this new technology can measure speed and flow in most visibility conditions - night, day, rain, snow and even fog.

RealTraffic Technologies says this new technology was developed for traffic management authorities and also for companies that aggregate traffic data for end-user applications.

    Videalert says its algorithms on automated enforcement can reduce the workload on staff while providing an effective deterrent to offenders. Colin Sowman reports. While members of the public may believe that the enforcement of parking regulations, bus lanes and box junctions has no practical benefit and is purely a money-making operation, for many authorities the opposite is true. Enforcement is a loss-making but vital exercise as illegally parked vehicles create obstructions and dangers leading to gridl

    Traficon's Head of Product and Application Management Robin Collaert offers up a discussion of the likely future green requirements of traffic video systems. At the most basic levels, ITS has the potential to significantly reduce the amounts of time which vehicles spend waiting at intersections, and less time spent waiting means less in the way of vehicular emissions. All of that will hardly come as news to most laypeople, let alone transport professionals. However, the reality is that even today too many r

Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS)-based positioning is unique among available positioning technology due to its universal coverage and low equipment cost. By measuring the distances between an unknown position (such as a vehicle), and at least three known positions (GPS satellites), the unknown position can be calculated in three dimensions (latitude, longitude, and
