Collection, monitoring, analyzing and reporting of traffic data via vehicle sensor devices placed at multiple remote locations to create traffic priority enforcement reports

摘要

Traffic management reports are created from data provided by vehicle sensor devices placed at different fixed locations in a region. Data of vehicles that pass each of the vehicle sensor devices are captured and communicated to a central computer database. At the central computer database, a traffic priority enforcement report is created from the vehicle data. The traffic priority enforcement report incorporates vehicle data from a plurality of vehicles. The vehicle data is for a plurality of previous, non-current times so as to allow for analysis of past vehicle data.

主权项

1. An apparatus for creating a traffic enforcement report from vehicle data captured by a plurality of vehicle sensor devices, each device being at a different fixed location in a region, each device capturing data of vehicles that pass the device, the vehicle data including vehicle speed, the apparatus comprising:
(a) a central computer database that is located remotely from the vehicles and which receives the captured vehicle data; and (b) a server in communication with the central computer database, the server:
(i) receiving the captured vehicle data,(ii) ranking each of the different fixed locations within a predefined time interval according to speed limit violations, and(iii) creating a traffic enforcement report from the captured vehicle data, the traffic enforcement report including a subset of the fixed locations having the highest ranking speed limit violations during the predefined time interval,wherein the traffic enforcement report incorporates vehicle data from a plurality of vehicles, and wherein the vehicle data is for a plurality of previous, non-current times so as to allow for analysis of past vehicle data.
