World-wide junction analysis for all intersections
Over 600+ million connected devices provide data insights for intersections in 80 countries. As these connected devices are found in (cars, phones, and trucks) there is no need for local hardware. Traffic light operators and urban planners can use this data, on its own or to extend their current infrastructure. They can use this scalable solution to:
-
Improve traffic light time to green
-
Validate traffic light performance for current control systems
-
Calibrate traffic simulation / prediction models
-
Optimize corridor and junction performance and discover delay hotpots
Easy access to identify and minimize delays at all intersections
The real-time traffic data is shown in a Web App, to provide a clear overview of how drivers move through intersections. It allows users to visually define and view intersections on a map to gain insights on every approach to a junction. Operators can observe:
-
Queues - the distance of vehicles waiting
-
Stops - the average number of stops per vehicle
-
(Free flow) travel time – duration of vehicles to travel through the approach line
-
Turn ratios - the percentage of vehicles direction distribution across the approach
-
(Usual) delay – time it takes for drivers to leave the junction after stopping
This data can also be feed into other systems using our Junction Analytics API.
Optimization through insights
Alongside intersection data, TomTom also offers historical, real-time and traffic prediction data to analyze and anticipate of surrounding road conditions. Combined with data provided by Junction Analytics, infrastructure operators can optimize traffic flows, manage cities and take control without the need for the expensive and high-maintenance sensor arrays that have been traditionally relied on.
With this technology in place, roads can be made more efficient, cleaner and safer for all road users.
