ITS (Intelligent Transportation Systems)

The state of Florida, District 6 has selected Impath's i-Volution i-4100 digital video encoding system for monitoring Highway 826. The i-4100 was chosen for its size, robustness and tolerance to harsh temperatures. Impath's interoperability with other video products in the network was a major factor for the selection.    

The Florida Department of Transportation utilizes Impath's i-Volution solution to monitor the 280 miles of the Florida Turnpike. The solution provides a total video surveillance system (100 cameras in the first phase) for both traffic control centers in Orlando and Pompano Beach. The solution is reliable, robust and easy to use, and also provides the flexibility to address network growth, which will come with future expansion of this project.

The Miami Dade Expressway Authority has selected Impath's i-Volution i-4100 video encoding system for Highway 836 (also known as the "Dolphin Expressway"). The Authority will share its video with other agencies such as the SunGuide Operation Center. Product interoperability and wide operating temperature range was a major factor for this project.    

Interstate I-64 and Route 44 have Impath's fully integrated video, voice and data systems installed at over 200 sites in a network that Impath was called upon to help design. The installation base includes the TeleVue Applications Management System. Three phases have been completed with VDoT - a testament to the quality of the Impath line of equipment.

Innovators in the field of ITS, officials at the Ontario Ministry of Transportation (MTO) were the first in Canada to implement a fully integrated video, voice and data ITS network in 1989. Since that time MTO has developed a comprehensive ITS infrastructure along Highway 401 in the Toronto area, and has installed Impath equipment at over 250 sites. Recognized at the second busiest highway section in North America, over 32,000 vehicles per hour make use of the roadway. Reflective of its confidence in Impath over the years, MTO has partnered with Impath on 8 phases of its ITS project (commonly referred to as COMPASS).   

City of Ottawa, ON, Canada

Downtown SurveillanceThe City of Ottawa uses Impath's solution to monitor traffic in the downtown core of the city. The add-drop capability of the TransPorter solution collects the video from various intersections and brings it all back to the Control Center using only 2 fibers.

Interstate I-10 in Phoenix, Arizona, following Phases I and II of its project, has an installation base of fully integrated video, voice and data systems. For manageability, it depends on Impath's TeleVue Applications Manager.   

Impath provided equipment for this critical ITS project in Santa Monica on the I-5, currently the world's busiest highway. In addition, Impath equipment is installed in the ITS systems of the Golden State I-105 and I-405 highways, and the I-10 state freeway.   

UFO Communication of Taiwan chose Impath as the supplier for this video transmission system on the highway between Taipei and Ilan. Transmission of 54 video channels between 5 sites and a traffic management.    

Zhu Ja Highway, Heilongjiang Province, 

Impath's products were selected to provide the transmission of high quality CCTV video surveillance along a major highway in northeastern China. The system was supplied through Impath's value added reseller, Symphonic Telecom Limited, for the Intelligent Transportation Systems market in China.

Ngauranga Gorge, Wellington, New Zealand Philips Projects Australasia (now Tyco Integrated Systems) supplied Impath to provide video networking equipment for the New Zealand Transit Authority. The project includes 22 multiplexers to monitor the 3 kilometer stretch of the Ngauranga Gorge Motorway near Wellington, New Zealand in what is considered a significant CCTV video transmission project for the area.
