TDC Systems through its long standing association in the transport industry has been responsible for designing and implementing customer driven software solutions.  We are passionate about our products and we spend time understanding new and emerging technologies so that we can focus on delivering the best possible transport database management and analysis software.

HI COMM® 100 Database Management Software
The HI-COMM® 100 traffic database management analysis suite has been designed and developed over many years specifically for Traffic engineers, and is used to collect traffic flow information from the HI-TRAC® counter classifiers for data analysis and reporting.  The software package enables the user to perform singular or multiple related specific tasks and also incorporates extensive equipment and sensor diagnostics capabilities. The complete range of HI-TRAC instruments can be interfaced with the real time mapping information system. This system is capable of delivering real time traffic flow information in a visual format.

HI COMM® RTV Software
The HI-COMM® RTV (Real Time View) software package is designed to be used by traffic officers; police or government agencies located at traffic control centres. The software provides the user with a fast and simple way to view; record and print vehicle Weigh-In-Motion data along with the vehicle number plate image in real time.

The HI-COMM® RTV synchronises the weigh-in-motion data output from the TDC HI-TRAC® WIM system with an automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) camera image in real time. The graphical user interface displays images and WIM data in real time in addition to storing it on a PC in a database which can be used for report generation and data retrieval.

C2 Web Software
The TDC range of traffic counters/classifiers and WIM systems are fully compatible with the Drakewell C2 software which allows the customer 24/7 access to their Traffic Data via a web browser.

Also included with C2-Web is a powerful map front end using ‘Google Maps’ that is easy to navigate and provides quick access to summary data and reports as well as providing information on the status of the recorders. In addition to the this real-time traffic data module Journey Time, ANPR and Bluetooth System Matching modules are also available.

GPRS Instation Communications Software
TDC in partnership with Drakewell Computers have developed the GPRS Instation communications software. This software is installed on a server and resides at a static IP address (and port) on the internet. The HI-TRAC unit is programmed, using the HI-COMM 100 software package, with the static IP address as well as the necessary telecoms provider settings to make a connection via GPRS including: APN number, Username and Password. When a GPRS connection is made by the counter classifier to the GPRS instation the HI-TRAC unit automatically transmits a status data packet. This includes the up to date event monitoring data, vehicle-by-vehicle data memory size, battery and sensor fault diagnostics, time and date and last transmission details. This data is then automatically stored on the C2 database.

Common Database
TDC Systems in partnership with Government Authorities and private transport companies has been instrumental in developing and integrating the system architecture in relation to the provision of a Common Database.  A Common Database allows operators to interact with different transport systems such as real time traffic data information from traffic outstations, as well as travel data from the HI-TRAC® Bluetooth system and ANPR camera systems over a GPRS network.  The viewer can be accessed via the local network or over the internet.

This exchange of up to the minute traffic data from different systems can be deployed as part of an Integrated Transport
System and this can be used to contribute to a number of transport benefits such as; improving journey time information and reliability, providing information on modal shift from cars to public transport and bicycles/pedestrian, revenue savings by improved road safety and shared roadside equipment between agencies and partners, reducing accidents by better road policing, changing travel behavior in response to climate change by providing timely and appropriate information before choosing to go on a journey.
