Safer data collection

Miovision Technologies has launched Scout, its nextgeneration video collection unit that is small enough to fit into a car and allows users to automatically collect traffic data in three simple steps using one device. Users can automate up to eight study types including intersection, roundabout and ADT counts, automatic number plate recognition, origin-destination and travel time studies. Miovision says Scout's comprehensive reporting allows users to extract the information they need with ease.
