Traffic analysis of two-lane highways
Periodica Polytechnica Civil Engineering, 2011 The analysis of huge rows of traffic data collected loop detectors we can get a lot of information about the traffic conditions of different highway sections. These equipments are able to measure the vehicle speed, following time and of course the traffic volume in different vehicle types.
