AirSage Intros TrafficWiSE to Aid Industry and Government with
Real-Time Traffic Information
(Wireless News Via Thomson Dialog NewsEdge)
AirSage, a provider of real-time traffic solutions, has announced the
release of TrafficWiSE, a suite of solutions designed to meet the
specific traffic information needs for a variety of public and private
sector organizations.
All solutions utilize the AirSage Wireless Signal Extraction, or WiSE,
technology. The WiSE technology is a software-based solution for
traffic information. Unlike historical or predictive approaches, the
company noted, which rely on small sample sizes and data from earlier
travel time periods, this software extracts and aggregates anonymous
wireless network data to provide true real-time traffic information.
"TrafficWiSE solutions draw on the signaling data from more than 51
million cell phones, allowing us to provide specific real-time traffic
information to a broad cross-section of customers affected by traffic
flow, incidents and congestion," said Cy Smith, founder and CEO of
AirSage. "This technology is unique in the industry and allows AirSage
to provide more accurate and reliable traffic data than any other
solution on the market today."
TrafficWiSE solutions are designed to meet the specific needs of a
variety of government and industry markets. The TrafficWiSE suite
includes:
- TrafficWiSE Work Zone - improves safety and reduces work zone impact;
- TrafficWiSE Transportation Planning - determines traffic flow between
defined areas; - TrafficWiSE Special Events - aids in traffic
management for large events; - TrafficWiSE Evacuation and Emergency
Management - ensures efficient evacuation of the public and ingress of
emergency personnel; - TrafficWiSE Evacuation and Emergency Planning -
provides historical traffic data for improved planning; and -
TrafficWiSE Alternative Routes - provides travel times for alternative
routes, reducing driving time and mitigating congestion.
Through its partnership with Sprint, AirSage noted that it is able to
access the anonymous signaling data from the mobile network. AirSage
then uses the anonymous data and transforms it into real-time traffic
data, the company noted in a release.
