VMT Monitoring of an Urban Network Using Bus-Based Video Imagery: Empirical Evaluation and Comparison with LBS Data-Derived Estimates

Abstract

AbstractVideo imagery obtained from cameras mounted on transit buses for nontraffic purposes while the buses are in regular service is used with a modification of the moving observer method to estimate traffic volumes and, subsequently, vehicle miles ...Practical ApplicationsUsing available video imagery obtained from cameras mounted on transit buses and a method developed for use with this imagery, traffic volumes are estimated for roadways on a large campus network with diverse land uses. The volumes ...
