Toll Road Software: Open Road Tolling Solutions with RoadView and RoadAudit
RoadView is Inex’s toll road software suite, built on 30 years of experience delivering video-based roadside tolling systems. It captures complete transaction data, including vehicle triggering, RFID matching, shape-based classification, axle counting, and automatic license plate recognition (ALPR).
These same core capabilities power RoadAudit, an independent toll-system audit tool. RoadAudit evaluates the performance of primary toll collection systems and can also function as a secondary, off-channel backup for toll collection. By comparing production transactions with RoadView video clips, it identifies mismatches for review and verification. Because it operates independently of existing road sensors, RoadAudit provides objective, reliable audit results and strengthens overall toll revenue assurance.
RoadView – Video-Based Roadside Toll Zone System
RoadView is an AI-based software suite designed to provide essential functionality for Tolling Video Enforcement Systems (VES). Fully video-based, RoadView supports various tolling installation scenarios, including ORT and side-fire.
Key Features:
Automatic vehicle detection
Vehicle counting
Vehicle classification
Vehicle tracking within toll zone
Triggering support of INEX ALPR cameras
Video-based axle counting
Fully video-based lane monitoring
Integrated Digital Video Auditing System (DVAS).
Additional ITS Metrics:
Traffic volume measurement
Traffic speed statistics
Wrong-way driver detection
Stopped vehicle detection and notification
Toll zone accident detection and notification
Vehicle dimensions.
Video-based information processing eliminates the need for expensive concrete cutting, in-ground loop maintenance, and axle counting treadles. The system seamlessly supports existing video cameras and integrates additional Inex cameras, delivering a comprehensive solution for a toll zone Vehicle Enforcement System (VES) infrastructure.
The RoadView system is highly modular and portable. Inex has implemented RoadView for different hardware platforms and toll road solution architectures. The actual ALPR recognition is performed on the edge by Inex cameras such as the IZA800G. The RoadView configuration provides intuitive web-based for system and lanes setup. The RoadView system API is HTTP/JSON based to send the data and images.
RoadView delivers a comprehensive, fully integrated solution for modern tolling needs, ensuring accurate and efficient operation.
