The iNode™ from SMATS Traffic Solutions is a robust processing system that employs modern filtering and data mining algorithms to deliver accurate and detailed traffic data from the customer’s collected Wi-Fi and Bluetooth samples.
Through SMATS API, the data is conveyed to iNode™, where it is automatically simplified and examined efficiently, saving time for users and preventing any effect of human error that could influence data output.
iNode™ offers instantaneous data processing from scanners and historical data from Crowdsourced, helping customers to make data-powered decisions to minimize delay times by nearly 50%, within their current infrastructure capabilities. By using iNode™, users can update scanner choices such as activity level and turn scanners on/off directly from any location.

iNode™ and Crowdsourced Traffic Data
The iNode™ goes beyond just data collection and analysis with the ability to extract live and historical traffic data from third-party crowdsourced data systems.
It is an extra tool for transportation managers, states, and cities to help track and govern how traffic moves.
Live and Historical Data Analytics
The iNode™ can collect real-time travel time data and carry out historical analysis using data back to the time the virtual link is initiated.
Functional Applications
Access to crowdsourced data would suit applications such as before/after studies with traffic signal advancement and traffic simulation model calibration.
Validated Data Accuracy
In field experiments, SMATS has verified that crowdsourced data is accurate for main roads and is ideal for instant traffic tracking applications and historical analysis.
Quick and Easy Installation
No hardware is needed to access crowdsourced data, and configuration with the iNode™ is simple and quick.
