Suceava Webcams
Three new video-cameras have been mounted in three ‘hot’ locations; in areas where there is a lot of traffic and accidents occur. The locations were chosen in close collaboration with EPA Suceava, GEC Suceava and Traffic Police. The CCTV cameras have multiple benefits: supervising some road segments or junctions to detect incidents or cases of law infringements in real time; classification of vehicles; monitoring the visibility range and climate conditions. The cameras will also be useful in finding solutions to avoid congestion, increase traffic fluency, improve driver behaviour and optimise time keeping and journey duration of the new buses.
The CCTV will also have an impact on public transport (PT) too; due to the technical characteristics they offer the possibility to better monitor the general traffic and PT in particular. All the information received from the systems will be sent through the internet to a server which will make them available on VMSs displays and on the web page. The CCTV cameras are integrated into an online advanced management platform, designed to monitor the road traffic according to European standards. The online management platform is connected to a Control and Monitoring Centre, consisting of two software applications: application “main operator” (for remote supervising and configuring of the system of data acquisition) and GIS SetInfoMap, a digital map with important information about traffic that will be accessible through a link on Suceava City Hall website.
