This month we celebrate Earth Day which is an annual event to bring awareness to the environment and focus on environmental issues. The transportation industry has been implementing many green initiatives and this Earth Day, we’ll focus on what government organizations and State DOTs are putting into action.
This past weekend Miovision attended the Green Living show at the Direct Energy Centre in Toronto, Ontario. This is one of North America’s largest green living consumer events and attracts over 400 exhibitors and 30,000 individuals over three days. It features a wide range of different green products and services, such as transportation, food, green building, eco-tourism and fashion.
A couple of weeks ago, I posted a blog article entitled, Top 5 Reasons to Automate Your Spring Counts, which briefly covered the use of faulty data in Northern Virginia and the importance of accurate traffic data collection. This started a number of discussions about traffic data accuracy and the consequences for cutting corners, so I decided to dedicate this week’s blog to this occurrence.
Last week, Miovision attended Intertraffic Amsterdam which is one of the top international events for infrastructure, traffic management, safety and parking. It was held from March 27-30 at the Amsterdam RAI Convention Center. It is one of Europe’s most attractive and innovative conference and exhibition centers and hosts more than 1000 international conferences, tradeshows, meetings, presentations and other gatherings.
Spring is officially upon us and transportation professionals are in the midst of kicking off the traffic count season. Last week’s blog, Top 3 Traffic Data Projects to Start Off Your Spring Count Season, focused on maximizing your traffic data collection efforts amongst three transportation projects.
This week, we’ll focus on why many transportation professionals are now automating their traffic studies. The start of a new year provides a great time to step up your traffic data collection efforts and leave the manual counters in the dust.
