Physical Object: ITS Roadway Equipment

Roadway Incident Detection

Overview

'Roadway Incident Detection' provides incident detection using traffic detectors and surveillance equipment. It monitors for unusual traffic conditions that may indicate an incident or processes surveillance images, watching for potential incidents. It provides potential incident information as well as traffic flow and images to the center for processing and presentation to traffic operations personnel.

This functional object is included in the "ITS Roadway Equipment" physical object.
