Eberle Design Incorporated (EDI) is here in Singapore to feature the latest evolution of its Intelligent Cabinet Interface to Traffic Equipment (iCITE) suite of products in the ITS America Pavilion.

The iCITE Data Aggregator features a data- and communications-rich hardware platform that can transform any legacy traffic cabinet into a continuous traffic count intersection monitoring station.

According to EDI, it easily interfaces to traffic controllers, communications-enabled detectors and intersection safety monitors.

And by adding remote intersection data to a traffic data set, coupled with providing turning movement counts and split timing data, the data aggregator brings immediate access to non-interconnected intersections via 3G/4G/LTE/GSM/GPRS cellular communications.

By installing the iCITE Data Aggregator, every intersection is turned into a permanent traffic count station with arrivals on red, the Purdue Coordination Diagram, split failure, queue length, split monitoring, and signal phase and timing data.

Any traffic management agency can then measure, analyse, manage and take action to make their intersections and traffic flows more efficient. With the addition of traffic travel time, speed data, and average daily and annual traffic counts, traffic planners gain insight into how best to adjust and time infrastructure assets, allowing improved levels of traffic throughput.

“Eberle Design’s commitment to innovation, quality of product, service and training to industry professionals has never wavered,” says John Shearer, VP – Business Development.

“The iCITE Data Aggregator is critical to the assessment and response to remote intersection challenges and ensures efficient mobility of transportation networks by collecting smart-city-ready traffic data.”
