Mobile CCTV and Video Surveys

Video surveys provide more accurate data than manual surveys providing digital evidence of the results and ability

for future analysis if required. Our cameras are all time and date stamped. Primarily used to collate traffic data at

roundabouts, priority junctions and traffic signals. We also install and provide complete stand alone CCTV

monitoring cameras which can be placed according to individual client requests and used for both live monitoring or

stand alone recordings. Video surveys can also be used for non-motorised user counts (pedestrians and cyclists),

monitoring servicing activity and public transport surveys.

Temporary ATCs and Permanent Loops

Temporary and permanent traffic counters for classification and speed of vehicles and cycles. ATC’s provide a cost

effective way of collecting data over longer periods of time and provide greater accuracy than radar units. We use

MetroCount counters which provide both speed and class for temporary installations. We can easily adjust the time

intervals and speed bins for ATC data and include 85th percentile information in the speed data as standard. Radar

units are also available. Permanent installations provide a cost effective solution for longer term monitoring.

Our team specialises in ANPR surveys and has undertaken hundreds of large scale studies using mobile digital

infrared ANPR cameras allowing studies to be undertaken in line with client’s requirements. Providing accurate

origin and destination information, journey times and duration of stay. We aim for 90% recognition and provide a

detailed matrix of recognition vs. total vehicles as a verification of each site. Our verification system allows manual

adjustment of misread or partial plates as well as classification to three classes (Lights/Heavies/PSV).
