    The States of Guernsey Embraces Real-Time Traffic Data with Advanced VM-I System

    The States of Guernsey (UK) has successfully transitioned from manual downloads to real-time traffic data through the implementation of VM-I real-time traffic counters across four main arterial routes on the island. This case study examines this technological upgrade's process, immediate benefits, and long-term strategic value. Within just 24 hours of installation, the system was operational, providing transportation officials with enhanced real-time traffic data.

RoadPod VM

VM7100
Vehicle Magnetometer Counter for Real-time Traffic Data

The RoadPod VM patented magnetometers are small, unobtrusive and off-grid vehicle counters that provide real-time data on traffic movements.

  • Installed within 60 seconds with no cutting or grinding of the road required.
  • Gives year-round, individual vehicle data in real-time including volume, speed, length-based classification and traffic gap.
  • Securely transmits and stores all data in the Cloud-based ATLYST® interactive dashboard.
  • Matching loops and piezoelectric sensors with 99% accuracy recording at the same site.

Patented Technology

RoadPod VMs work in an array to accurately count vehicles, monitor speeds and classify vehicle type based on the length of each passing vehicle. Gap and headway information is also available and all data is precisely time-stamped.

speed

Quick & Easy Installation

Each RoadPod VM sensor is installed in less than a minute, requiring no cutting or grinding of the road. Data collection begins instantly upon completion.

cloud_upload

Cloud-Powered Insights

Your VM data is securely transmitted into ATLYST®, where it is processed into interactive analytics in real-time. Dive deeper into data filtering and analysis, knowing your information is safely archived in Cloud storage.

Loop Like Data

An array of RoadPod VM sensors will record length-based individual vehicle data. Get access to real-time volume, speed and classification data, as well as traffic gap and headway information.

Sensor Down, Counting On

With built-in redundancy, a damaged magnetometer doesn't mean lost data. Instead, the VM maintains full operation, allowing time for replacing the affected sensor. This fail-safe approach redefines reliability in traffic counting.

solar_power

Solar-Powered. 100% Off Grid

The entire RoadPod VM system operates independently of mains power. Each sensor is powered by a small, in-built solar panel and internal battery. Likewise, the roadside gateway is solar-powered and has a backup battery to run 24/7.

Extreme Data Accuracy

A 99.8% speed accuracy and 98.9% classification accuracy when compared with inductive loop and piezoelectric data at the same location for the same period.

RoadPod VM provides rapid solution in Western Australia’s remote north

Main Roads WA needed to install a traffic counting solution as a backup in place of several RoadPod® VP sites that had failed due to flooding. The extensive installation normally required to replace the piezoelectric sensor strip sites meant that another faster deployment solution was to be investigated.

We would not use any other product on high-volume roads again! Switching to the RoadPod VM system saves us money and gives us more data, all while reducing the risks to our staff of being on the road. We were impressed with the timeliness of the installation, which took a total of one hour on the carriageway on a four-lane road. The 24/7 real-time data collected has proved extremely accurate. We compared the data with both video monitoring and a MetroCount tube counter. Our clients are extremely happy with the user-friendly ATLYST software, which allows them to view, analyse, and share information at the touch of a button. It is the perfect system!
