Speed and Red Light Enforcement using Digital Cameras with International Acceptance
Efficient traffic enforcement requires enforcement systems using digital cameras instead of wet film technology. The digital file containing the image data and the measured speed and/or other values may be used at place for direct displaying or - without personnel at place - for an automated transfer of the data to a central bureau. The concept of a digital enforcement system has been drafted already in the nineties and has become reality in several countries in the meantime. This paper presents a detailed and structured set of specifications and requirements that can be used by the manufacturer and by authorities responsible for the type approval of such devices with the vision of world wide accepted tests. This set has been drafted by a consortium within the project VERA II (Video Enforcement for Road Authorities) funded by the EC.
