Method and system for collecting traffic data, monitoring traffic, and automated enforcement at a centralized station
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- via a first processor at a central station, scheduling capturing of at least one image of an individual vehicle at a first remote traffic intersection, said scheduling responsive to automatic processing of;
information related to said individual vehicle, said individual vehicle associated with said first remote traffic intersection, andinformation related to a first traffic signal associated with said first remote traffic intersection, said first remote traffic intersection one of a plurality of remote traffic intersections from each of which information related to corresponding traffic signals is received at said central station.

Abstract
A distributed individual vehicle information capture method for capturing individual vehicle data at traffic intersections and transmitting the data to a central station for storage and processing is provided. The method includes capturing individual vehicle information at a plurality of intersections (122) and transmitting the individual vehicle information from the intersections to a central station (124). Consequently, the individual vehicle information is available to be stored and processed by a device at the central station (126). Traffic intersection equipment for capturing individual vehicle data at traffic intersections and transmitting the data to a central station for storage and processing is also disclosed. The equipment includes a traffic detection device (159) for capturing individual vehicle data at an intersection (158) and a network connection to a central station (174). The traffic detection device (159) is operably configured to transmit to the central station (174) the individual vehicle information.
