WSDOT install 360° radar-based automatic incident detection

Navtech, our US partners, AGS, and WSDOT (Washington State Department of Transportation) install 360° radar-based AID technology for the first time in the Pacific Northwest (PNW).

The installation at the WSDOT test bed features a single KTS radar system designed to deliver automatic incident detection and traffic data from a single system. The initial technology trial is to detect pedestrians on the roadside. However, the commissioned system will also be able to demonstrate the identification of multiple incident types, including slow-moving and stopped vehicles, wrong-way drivers, traffic queues as well as count and classify capabilities. 

Since 2003, Advanced Government Services (AGS) has delivered superior traffic control services and road safety equipment to the Pacific Northwest. Their award-winning, comprehensive traffic safety solutions include traffic management plans, flagging, equipment rentals, signage, installation, and smart work zones. AGS also provides technology and intelligent transportation systems to capture and analyze traffic data to improve the sustainability, efficiency and safety of our roads and highways. AGS is a subsidiary of ATS Traffic.
