Data Collection

We provide a full range of data collection solutions tailored to agency needs. These include traffic count stations, speed and classification studies, portable traffic analyzers, and roadside sensors that monitor conditions such as air quality, temperature, and surface moisture. By combining tools such as portable analyzers from MH Corbin, reliable control components from Eberle Design Inc., weather sensors from Lufft, and advanced detection solutions from Currux Vision, agencies can capture both traffic performance and environmental conditions in real-time.

Field sensors process traffic and environmental data on-site before transmitting it through wireless or fiber connections. Many systems support cloud-based communication platforms, enabling traffic management centers to receive information instantly and securely. Partners such as Inrix provide access to additional mobility data streams, helping agencies blend roadside insights with regional traffic trends. This ensures that operators, planners, and engineers all share the same accurate information when making decisions.

Yes. Our systems are designed with interoperability in mind and can integrate seamlessly into existing Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) frameworks. Whether agencies are running traditional traffic management software or modern Mobility Software-as-a-Service (MSaaS) platforms, our tools connect without requiring a full system replacement. This enables easier expansion of data collection capabilities while protecting past investments in infrastructure.

Collected traffic and environmental data can be exported in multiple formats, including CSV, XML, JSON, and through direct API connections. Built-in reporting tools allow agencies to generate dashboards, charts, and corridor performance reports that are useful for planning, grant applications, and public presentations. Map-based visualization tools enable easy identification of congestion patterns or environmental anomalies that may impact roadway safety.

Our systems feature automated calibration capabilities to ensure accuracy over time. Remote diagnostics and software updates can be performed without sending crews into the field, reducing operational costs and minimizing disruptions. Regular firmware upgrades also ensure compatibility with evolving ITS standards, allowing data collection systems to remain reliable and future-ready.

Accurate and consistent data underpin every decision in modern traffic management. It allows agencies to:

• Coordinate signal timing across corridors
• Monitor cabinet and equipment health
• Identify congestion triggers and correct them quickly
• Improve roadway safety during peak traffic or adverse weather

By investing in data collection, agencies deliver measurable benefits to residents: shorter commutes, safer crosswalks and intersections, and more efficient use of transportation funding. Communities ultimately experience smoother travel and safer, more predictable roads.
