Traffic Management Control Centers

At the center of traffic management operations lay control rooms, the nerve centers that integrate technology, data, and human expertise to monitor, analyze, and optimize traffic flow.
Control rooms bring together real-time data from various information systems, such as traffic sensors, cameras, and intelligent transportation systems. Highly trained personnel, including traffic engineers, operators, and analysts, utilize this data to make informed decisions and implement strategies to maintain smooth and safe transportation systems by alleviating congestion, minimizing delays, and enhancing overall traffic efficiency.
Datapath’s control room solution, Aetria, includes a unified interface that enables access to hundreds of data and control systems for constant monitoring and collaboration across an operator’s entire operational view. Accurate and clear visual data is presented, enabling swift issue identification and response.
Aetria Control Room Solution for Highways and Street Networks:
Aetria equips traffic management control room teams with the tools they need to handle the broad range of tasks, risks and issues across the whole operation, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

Increase Resilience 24/7/365
Road networks need be monitored on a 24/7 basis, using a variety of tools including CCTV, traffic and congestion data, and weather condition detectors. These data sources need bringing into the control room environment, on video walls and operator workstations to provide operators with a common operation picture.
Aetria’s unified interface can ingest hundreds of sources, which can be categorized, and displayed on operator screens and video walls for constant monitoring and collaboration. For example, to adjust for winter conditions, using Aetria to combine weather forecasting technology and temperature monitoring software can help operators determine the optimal time to deploy sanders, and grit and salt spreaders.
Incident Management
Road accidents cause severe pressure on existing networks with congestion quickly rendering key routes to a standstill. Operators need the tools to gain situational awareness, collaborate, and act quickly to get traffic moving again.
Aetria views all relevant sources such as the CCTV of the accident, connected roads, live maps, and traffic lights. Visuals are then sent to the centralized canvas and remote colleagues for further input. Access third-party programs through Aetria to take corrective action such as changing traffic lights and signals, warn road users by updating road information boards, and send alerts via transport bulletins and social media.
Visual Data - The way you need it
Whether resolving traffic incidents in real-time or via recorded information, the detail and clarity of source data can be significant in understanding the situation, where the highest visual quality is required. Aetria supplies 4K footage when needed to provide a full detailed picture, or where lower quality is sufficient for decision make, lower resolutions can be used.
