Radar Surveys
TAPS has a Smartsensor HD Radar Traffic Classifier mounted on a mobile trailer. The trailer is equipped with 4 batteries and solar powered to allow the unit to be deployed in the field for indefinite periods.
The Smartsensor units can survey up to 10 lanes simultaneously, collecting speed data, length classification and occupancy data. Up to 15 user defined speed bins and 10 length bins can used. The data can either be stored in the unit for regular down loading or data can be continuously streamed out to a web-site if required.
The unit can be installed anywhere from 1.8 metres from the first lane being surveyed to about 15 metres from the nearest lane allowing great flexibility in site installations.
Additionally Smartsensors can be installed on poles without the trailer if the site conditions are not suitable for the use of the trailer.

Radar surveys are useful to undertake speed and classification surveys where the installation of tubes across the road may be problematic due to large traffic volumes, particularly of heavy traffic, where tubes regularly fail and are difficult to install and maintain due the need for extensive traffic management. Radar is also less intrusive with there being no noise generated by the tubes being hit by traffic. Another location for this type of technology is on tram roads where tubes cannot be used.
