GROUNDHOG® - Permanent Traffic Counters

A permanent traffic counter so revolutionary, you'll wonder why anyone would use something else.

Monitor, collect, analyze and store accurate and essential traffic and roadway surface conditions remotely from the convenience of your office. Groundhog is a permanent, in-pavement, self-contained traffic monitor with no external sensors. Vehicle detection and measurement are accomplished by Vehicle Magnetic Imaging (VMI™) Technology that determines the magnetic influence of a motor vehicle passing through the Earth's magnetic field. Recorded data can be transferred wireless or via telephone lines, fiber optic or cellular links.
