چکیده

This paper presents a scalable, discreet and mobile video-camera system that takes elevated video data of roadway locations for traffic safety analysis. The video is used to extract microscopic traffic parameters including road-user trajectories, lane changes and speeds. Collected video data is processed using an open-source automatic tracking tool. Trajectories can be then used to analyse road user behaviour for specific locations (intersections or highway sections) or to evaluate the safety effectiveness of a treatment. The different elements of the systems including data collection and processing are discussed. To illustrate its versatility, different applications (case studies) illustrate the use of the video-camera system and open-source video-tracking and analysis tool. This includes video-based conflict analysis at highway ramps and behavioural analysis of pedestrians and cyclists at signalized intersections, including red-light violations.

Method of Video-Measurements of Traffic Flow Characteristics at a Road Junction

In the theory of traffic flows the main characteristics are: intensity, speed, and density.  They make it possible to use hydrodynamic models. In connection with the development of modern highways and road networks, traffic flows behavior is becoming more and more complex and diverse. In particular, the B.Kerner studies have shown that the laminar solution of hydrodynamic models is poorly corre...
