• Abstract:
  Conceptual techniques are discussed for the proximity measurement of vehicle characteristics as detected on freeway entrance and exit ramps. These characteristics, such as magnetic profile and wheelbase, would be recorded over a contiguous set of entrance and exit ramps defining a freeway section. At a later time, these data would be processed to develop correlations for predicting the entrance and associated exit points of individua] vehicles for the purpose of conducting freeway origin-destination surveys by automatic means. This report is a feasibility study for the described techniques.
