8097 Gridsmart Technologies has launched Atlas, a web-based software platform that allows traffic departments to securely share imagery from Gridsmart systems and other IP cameras with outside entities.

“Gridsmart Atlas optimises taxpayer dollars by deploying one product that can be utilised by various city entities,” said Dr Jeff Price, chief of technology.

Atlas delivers a dynamic, time-lapse video loop, allowing users to quickly capture an overview of traffic, then share it.

As Atlas is accessed from any standard compliant web browser, there is no need for special software or applications. It displays correctly from multiple devices, including wall displays, desktops, tablets or mobile phones.
