TrafxFLOW supports the growing needs of data that goes beyond counts. It is an on-demand video-based solution that provides various multimodal traffic metrics through an online dashboard. Using almost any video source, practitioners can get accurate and diverse data metrics to plan, design and evaluate the performance of road geometry and signalization changes, traffic calming, and curbside projects.
Applications
Planning and designing road facilities for motorized vehicles and vulnerable road users requires new data sources to identify traffic flow performance issues and pedestrian and cyclist patterns. The optimization of urban space starts with a deep understanding of road and curbside utilization.
Traffic Studies
Traffic survey video analysis is used to provide insight for road planning and design through metrics such as:
- Counts classified by mode
- Counts classified by turning movements and lane occupancy
- Estimates of average annual daily traffic (AADT) for vehicles
- Gap acceptance time and traffic density
Speed and Delay Studies
Speed studies provide information on general speed trends, reasonable speed limits, and safety through:
- Operating speeds over time and by mode
- Speed by movement (median, 15th, and 85th percentile speeds)
- Average delays and queue length
- Acceleration and deceleration
Road User Behavioural Analysis
Determining road users desired paths provides insight on new roadway design through metrics on:
- Pedestrian crossing outside of crossings
- Vehicle blocking lanes
- Intersection left-turn blockage
- Over-speeding
Curbside Management
Curbside management seeks to optimize and manage curb spaces to maximize mobility and access through:
- Parking space monitoring
- Bus transit operations
- Monitoring delivery zones
- Sidewalk flow analysis
