Multi-Sensor Traffic Data Fusion

Abstract: 

In this report, the authors describe a unique surveillance system that was installed on a section of the I-80 freeway in Emeryville California. Known as the Berkeley Highway Laboratory (BHL) , the system consists of eight dual loop detector stations along the freeway section, and at twelve video cameras. In order to process the video data to generate vehicle trajectories, advanced machine vision algorithms were developed. The authors discuss current effort to fuse the loop and video detector data to obtain detailed and accurate information on traffic operating conditions.
