Reno A&E to Host August 11th Webinar, “Data
Aggregator™ – Obtaining Real-time Traffic Data from Remote Intersections”
Please join Reno A&E on August 11th for an informative 45-minute webinar on the iCITE™ Data Aggregator™ (DA-100B) Series field monitoring device – the first system capable of accessing real-time intersection and cabinet data from any traffic cabinet via a high-speed communications connection, regardless of the traffic controller or central ITS system. The iCITE™ DA-100B™ delivers real-time traffic data through an encrypted wireless or Ethernet Cloud-based IP connection. Presented by Matt Zinn, RAE (Reno A&E) Applications Sales and Technical Services Manager, the webinar will demonstrate live, how traffic signal technicians and engineers can access real-time arterial traffic and intersection information such as vehicle counts by phase, phase status changes, cabinet alarms, and overall operational health of the traffic cabinet status from remote, non-interconnected intersections. To register, kindly visit http://bit.ly/1Sn67GS.
