Announcing the Waypoints GIS Connector

By |January 5th, 2023|

Stellar Services, Arup and Moonshadow team up to address an urgent need

Departments of Transportation (DOTs) maintain their road network information in GIS systems. Connected Vehicle (CV) data gives us detailed information on how the road network is used. DOTs, therefore, have a need to combine road usage information from CV data with the road network information in their GIS system.

Arup used data from Michelin to visualize the congestion resulting from a Citi Field Mets game inside of ArcGIS over time

As vehicles are driving they send an update to the cloud every few seconds to generate a sequence of ‘breadcrumbs’ or […]

Introducing Arterial Insights

By |May 12th, 2021|

DKS Associates and Moonshadow Mobile are introducing Arterial Insights: an online tool to measure the performance of traffic corridors and signalized intersections using connected vehicle (CV) data from tens of millions of vehicles.

It can be time consuming and expensive to measure the efficiency of a signal timing plan for a corridor for example.  Up to now travel times, speeds and delays were measured by installing equipment at intersections, or by performing ‘floating car runs’.  Maintaining yet another group of devices in the field can be challenging and expensive whereas floating car […]

DB4IoT with INRIX for transportation emission analysis

By |May 10th, 2021|

The Eastern Research Group (ERG) studied the usefulness of using vehicle telematics data to create vehicle emission inventories. The study has been published by the Coordinated Research Council, Inc (CRC).

ERG surveyed several data sets and analytics platforms and vetted them before embarking on a more detailed study. They selected three sources, these included Moonshadow Mobile’s DB4IoT Platform with INRIX data, StreetLight Data’s Insight platform and Otonomo data.

Data from StreetLight were used to estimate total Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) within their study area. The study area was the 10-county Denver metro area. ERG verified StreetLight algorithm for scaling up telematics […]

Introducing Moonshadow Live Traffic

By |July 31st, 2020|

Moonshadow Mobile, Inc. has developed Moonshadow Live Traffic, powered by Wejo Ltd’s real-time connected car data, to give traffic managers access to maps that show the traffic situation for any area in the US with a latency of 30 seconds or less. 

Moonshadow Live Traffic is a break-through in both speed and accuracy for real-time traffic data by using Wejo connected vehicle data from over 10 million vehicles in the US.  The Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT) recently issued an RFP that includes some key performance indicators (KPI’s) for real-time traffic data.  Moonshadow Live Traffic beats most KPI’s by a factor […]
