A safe way to collect traffic data
Verifiable, accurate multimodal traffic data collection
Technicians no longer need to enter the roadway to set up data collection equipment or make unplanned site visits to check on the system. Miovision Scout® is an all-in-one, camera-based data collection device that is safely deployed at the roadside. Nonintrusive, durable and weatherproof, Scout is designed to work unattended in the field, for days at a time.
Turn video into traffic data
Include all or some standard vehicle classifications and have the flexibility to do cyclist and pedestrian counts at the same time. Collect verifiable traffic data by the minute, in selectable bin sizes for:
- Vehicle classifications - cars, motorcycles, pickups & vans, single-unit trucks, articulated trucks, buses
- Multimodal classifications - pedestrians and bicycles
- Custom classifications, like e-scooters, are available upon request
Understand your traffic networks better. Gather insights from the raw video-based data to create studies for:
- Intersection counts - vehicle, bicycle and pedestrian movements
- Pathway counts - pedestrian and bicycle
- Road volume (ATR) and roundabout counts
- Travel time (requires LTE connectivity)
Safe and non-intrusive
Keeping field teams out of roadways is critical when setting up traffic study equipment. That’s why Scout Explore is safely deployed at the roadside.
Set up can be done in 15 minutes and taken down in much less time.
Fast and accurate results
For projects – big or small – our video processing is guaranteed to deliver 95%+ accuracy (on 7 traffic study types) and available within 72 hours. If you need a faster turnaround time, just let us know.
Online project management
Miovision DataLink™ provides everything you need to manage studies and collaborate with your team – from start to finish. The platform also enables you to remotely monitor and change traffic studies without going onsite.
scalable and customizable study types
Since Scout is battery-operated, studies can take place at various locations – intersections, mid-block streets or along multi-use pathways. You can also simultaneously perform multiple studies for each location – with a single device.

Frequently Asked Questions
Here are just some of the questions we get asked about Scout Explore and portable traffic data collection.
How does Miovision guarantee accurate traffic data?
Miovision ensures 95%+ data accuracy on most multidirectional counts (TMCs, Roundabouts, Pathway Junction counts). Once a video is uploaded to Miovision, it’s configured by a Data Services Technician to identify vehicle entry and exit points, and all possible movements. Next, the video is submitted to Miovision’s proprietary system for data extraction and processing. The data is then manually reviewed for accuracy and anomalies. Corridors and adjacent locations are checked with data visualization tools to ensure a ±5 vehicle accuracy or 95% match between common links.
Who uses Scout Explore to collect traffic data?
The traffic data collected by Scout Explore is used by transportation professionals around the world to help improve mobility and make transportation networks more efficient.
Whether you are a city planner, traffic engineer, department of transportation, or an advocacy group, Scout Explore provides traffic data and analytics that are accurate, easy to understand and designed to help you make informed decisions about how your transportation networks are planned and managed.
