TrafficCast
International Technology Platform
The
TrafficCast International technology platform is
currently focused on data processing, analysis,
fusion, and simulation; with a subsystem for data
and information dissemination. This platform for
centralizing and synthesizing data analysis
includes a series of proprietary processes,
software and models for data filtering, data
enhancing, geo-coding, information coding, data
fusion, and traffic models.
The Company developed a homogenous national
database of flow and incident information.
Comprising 450,000 miles of roadways, about ten
times the length of the Interstate Highway System,
TrafficCast International pulls data from every
expressway and major arterial in the country. The
database includes 3 million individual links (trip
segments). In addition to deep relationships with
state and local DOT's to gather this data,
TrafficCast International also converts the
roadway camera images to traffic flow data.
From its comprehensive database of traffic
information, TrafficCast International's software
can forecast trips from start to finish along
intercity routes; no one ˇ°drops offˇ± when they
leave town. Moreover, the Company's database is
uniquely designed to integrate all sources of
digital data, including new technology like
cellular and GPS probes. Based on this network,
TrafficCast International has developed an
extensive set of analytics and data fusion
techniques to create an array of applications that
operate seamlessly across the US . Rather than
simply passing on traffic incident data, generally
obtained from public sources, TrafficCast
International technology and analytic model
emphasizes travel times, the key to supporting
most personal travel applications.
TrafficCast International's suite of products,
existing or in development, are based on this
comprehensive technology platform. As its core
application platform, the Company provides a
complete suite of back-end and front-end traffic
applications, including data retrieving,
processing, fusion, and information provision.
