Opticom Analytics enables users of 542 Global Traffic Technologies’ (GTT’s) GPS-enabled emergency vehicle pre-emption hardware to assess intersection performance, reveal problem areas and make corrections to provide a faster, safer emergency response.

The web-based analytics platform collects data logs from the Opticom-equipped vehicles via a Wi-Fi or cellular connection and allows departments to view critical information about their department’s vehicles as they pass through an intersection. This information can be used to make more informed decisions about emergency response.

Users can sort and view performance metrics based on date, speed, travel time, vehicle type, preemption usage and more.
