Monitoring system with applications in road transport

The paper describes a modern traffic monitoring system designed to optimize road traffic flow, while ensuring mobility and access with the aim of meeting the current and future necessities for road travel. Furthermore, the proposed system complies with the requirements for rational use of urban land and the regulation on environmental protection. The importance of finding such solution derives from the current problems faced by the urban road traffic, such as congestions, pollution, security issues. It is with the purpose of solving traffic flow and security problems that the authors are proposing in this paper the implementation of an innovative system utilizing new technologies for real-time collecting, organizing and transmitting of information about traffic and weather conditions. To this end, data collection and processing were performed using LabVIEW programming.
