Speed measurement with the use of video sensors offers many advantages in arterial and freeway traffic management. For example, video sensors can measure traffic speed over a wide area that can be used in incident detection and congestion monitoring. For several reasons, evaluation of video sensor speed measurement is a difficult task and, therefore, does not get conducted often. An evaluation process was completed using a new mobile test platform. This paper discusses the test procedure, the tools used, and results of the test. For the covering abstract see ITRD E209471.
