Abstract:
This document contains the LIDAR speed-measuring device performance specifications developed by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration through a Cooperative Agreement with the International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP) and in consultation with the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), Office of Law Enforcement Standards (OLES). Because this document is designed as a development and procurement aid, it is highly technical. This document supersedes the Model Performance Specifications for LIDAR Speed-Measurement Devices (DOT HS 809 811, June 2004) and all subsequent revisions. By defining minimum performance requirements and verification procedures, this technical document establishes a baseline for acceptable traffic LIDAR speed-measuring device and LIDAR system performance. The public, the courts, and law enforcement officers should be assured that LIDAR speed-measuring models, determined by test to comply with these performance specifications, will provide the high quality of service they require. LIDAR equipment buyers should use these performance specifications as minimum specifications when developing purchasing criteria. We suggest these specifications be incorporated into procurement documents requiring that LIDAR speed-measuring devices offered for purchase meet, as a minimum, these specifications. Manufacturers are encouraged to produce LIDAR speed-measuring devices and LIDAR systems that meet or exceed these performance specifications. These performance specifications are subjected to continuing review.
