Overview

Background & policy context:

A correct registration of traffic conditions with the help of traffic monitoring systems is of utmost importance for optimal traffic control.  Although today’s traffic monitoring systems are widely used for the traffic-dependent control of light-signal systems, there is still a need for research and information.

Objectives:

The objective of the project is a development of scientific fundamentals for standardization; development of proposals concerning a possible revision of existing standards.

Methodology:

Literature research, collecting and compiling the technical data of the different systems
The ollowing steps will be completed during the project:

  • Poll perform with the operators and evaluate compilation of practical experience
  • Definition and explanation
  • The system catalogue creation and the corresponding example
  • Create research report
