11.4.2 Arterial Management
On highways and country roads, the sensor is typically used to count and classify traffic.
Usually are selected and reported in configurable counting /statistics intervals.
The sensor delivers the following data:
Volume
Occupancy
Average Speed
Vehicle Presence
The data can be retrieved in Push Mode
a)
in low data volume as aggregated statistics output
b)
as per vehicle record (PVR)
Figure 59: Standard Configuration CAIMAN-PRO 80 (High Power)
Because of the forward-looking principle, the sensor provides the significant higher speed
accuracy / general speed based information, compared to other traffic counting equipment.
The sensor is usually mounted at the roadside on a vertical pole. No setback is required.
Other mounting positions (gantry, mast arm, luminaire) may be possible. The
standard
configuration
for Type 80 sensor for counting applications is shown in Figure 5 and its
parameters are given in the table below.
