Traffic Data Collection
Gain the data you need to keep traffic flowing smoothly and safely.
Intelligent Traffic Data Collection
Cities rely on knowing exactly what’s happening on their roads at all times. From city planners looking to optimize traffic flow, to transportation departments responding to deadly accidents and fires, strong data collection is crucial for maintaining efficient and safe roads.
Flir cameras, sensors, and software revolutionize how traffic flows on roadways around the world. Our unique, field-proven solutions help vehicles, pedestrians, and bicycles move safely and smoothly through complex urban environments.
Smarter, Safer Detection
By combining FLIR's public safety technologies with smart city infrastructure, cities can enhance their overall resilience, responsiveness, and ability to protect their communities.
AI-powered thermal and visible sensors detect approaching vehicles, cyclists, and pedestrians without the need for pre-configured zones. Reliably control intersections and gather valuable positioning, speed, and heading data for a comprehensive, continuous view of your roadways.
FLIR Automatic Incident Detection (AID) cameras also detect collisions, stopped vehicles, wrong-way drivers, and more in challenging conditions so that emergency personnel can be quickly alerted to incidents on roadways and in tunnels.

Our Intelligent Transportation Systems have been collecting real time data from intersections at cities across the world for over 30 years.
With this large data set to feed our machine learning technology, we can consistently and accurately detect, identify and categorize road users - from pedestrians to automobiles to motorcycles. This data driven intelligence is helping city planners to understand how road users perceive and react to hazards, empowering them to develop the safe, sustainable smart cities of the future.
Actionable, Real-Time Data
Acyclica is the cloud layer for infrastructure, providing high resolution, real-time information about the way people move. Integration at the intersection level and sub-second latency enable vehicle to intersection (V2I) communication. Relevant analytics offer the information necessary to optimize infrastructure performance and make roads safer. Patented WiFi technology provides the high-resolution data needed by adaptive signal systems. Cabinet health information including SPaT, controller and monitor data, and detector activations provide a holistic view of intersections and corridors while industry-leading software and APIs allow for easy integration into existing workflows.
Acyclica is used around the world by cities, Departments of Transportation, and consultants to manage congestion. From managing time-of-day plans on busy arterials to posting travel-times on variable message boards, Acyclica is designed to streamline the way people move.
