SCATS adaptive traffic management system synchronises traffic signals to optimise traffic flow across a whole city, region or corridor.
More than just a way of linking traffic signals for road management coordination, SCATS is a sophisticated traffic engineering system that allows for the implementation of complex, objective-oriented, traffic management strategies.
HOW SCATS WORKS SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE
A new ITS interface has been added allowing secure connections to SCATS from other systems and ensuring the system complies with modern cybersecurity standards. This initial release brings a set number of messages with additional functionality being added in subsequent product releases. The interface is designed to enable the launch of new innovative products scheduled to follow this release.
This release introduces new variation routines and implements enhancements on a number of existing variation routines. Configuration options have been substantially increased, allowing for higher performance optimisation that meets the needs of individual customers.
Release 6.9.4 introduces support for the latest version of SCATS controllers running TRAFF VC6.2.
The SCATS administrator can now configure certain access levels to apply Dwells and the maximum Dwell duration applicable to those access levels.
The User Interface now supports Windows 10, addresses a number of reported issues and contains additional enhancements that will further improve the user experience. This release introduces a session authentication to Access thereby improving the security of the system.
The issue preventing the operation of the detector estimation functionality introduced in release 6.9.3 has been fixed and now operates as specified. Additionally, this release has addressed issues reported by customers since the previous release.
WinTRAFF Single is an application that emulates a single SCATS Traffic Signal Controller. To run this application, the user will require a valid personality file to be written.
WinTRAFF Single aims to emulate most of the functionality that a SCATS Traffic Signal Controller provides. WinTRAFF is a standalone application and can be run in isolated mode or connected to a SCATS system.
WinTRAFF Simulation, like WinTRAFF Test, allows the emulation of a number of SCATS Traffic Signal Controllers. In addition to WinTRAFF Test, WinTRAFF Simulation allows two modes of operation, Real-Time and Simulation (as fast as possible). The application also allows the user to pause the simulation as well as execute the simulation in a single step-mode.
WinTRAFF Simulation allows for modelling and visualisation of the controllers operating in a SCATS environment. This application is required if SCATS is interfaced to a micro-simulation modelling software application.
WinTRAFF Test is an application that allows the emulation of a number of SCATS Traffic Signal Controllers. WinTRAFF Test requires separate personality files for each controller it is required to emulate and the application is configured via a configuration script, thus allowing configuration files to be reused and shared.
WinTRAFF Test also allows for detector simulation data to be loaded (via a separate script) for each controller that the application is emulating.
ITS Developers Kit allows third parties to develop software to connect to SCATS Software
NGEN is an application that is used to create SCATS Traffic Signal Controller configuration files called Personalities that specify the operation required of the controller at a particular SCATS controlled site.
