• Description:
  There is a need for large quantities of traffic data to plan, design and operate urban freeways. Portable traffic counters and records, utilizing microprocessors and memory storage, have increased the efficiency in the collection of volume data, and to a limited extent, the processing and reporting of the data. The increased need for timely data requires systems that automatically process and store data in a computer data management system For the current microprocessor technology in portable data collection systems of traffic counters, this project develops software programs that transfer the raw data to a large computer, process and store the data informs from which the user can request a large number of analyses and report formats with little manual intervention.
