Live traffic camera video can be seen within the layered map as well, providing a real-time view of how the weather is affecting roadways

Telvent GIT has announced the completion of its MxVision WeatherSentry online platinum package. The company says that for the first time, users will be able to overlay Telvent's forecasting technology with colourcoded traffic speeds, live cameras and their own custom layers to provide the most comprehensive view of the weather's impact on their operations.

Together with Telvent's high-resolution street-level mapping, this customised layering technology allows users to combine weather and traffic conditions with their own geospatial boundaries and assets.

Industries ranging from energy to transportation will experience enhanced situational awareness as they can anticipate and track weather's impact on operations and crews.

For example, a public works department will be able to see on one convenient interface the weather radar, live conditions and the impact the weather is having on the flow of traffic in their district. Telvant says that with this data, better decisions can be made regarding snow-fighting efforts.

Widespread take-up of technologies such as Bluetooth and wi-fi are encouraging the emergence of more sophisticated, while still cost effective, ITS responses to the traffic issues posed by temporary road situations such as work zones and special events. Andy Graham of traffic solutions specialists White Willow Consulting says: “A machine-to-machine radio link is far easier and cheaper than reading characters on a plate.” There can be other plusses.

  • Network video alternative to machine vision in urban applications

    It would be easy to fall into the trap of seeing machine vision as the vision-based solution for ITS and traffic, however Patrik Anderson, Director Business Development Transportation of Axis Communications, notes that many of the applications which are coming to be associated with machine vision – and, indeed, many of the characteristics, such as at-the-edge analytics and image processing – are also possible with open-standard networked video. Networked video brings a whole host of advantages, such as the
