Reach Your Goals With KITS

In one integrated system, KITS™ allows you to:

Access real-time knowledge of system conditions. KITS™ provides CCTV control, equipment monitoring, and video wall management to monitor all your field devices from one application, with CCTV control, video wall control, camera tours, scheduled presets, real-time displays, and dynamic GIS maps.

Configure KITS™ to notify you before issues become problems. Get immediate updates on detector malfunctions, stuck pedestrian buttons, abnormal phase timing, congestion alerts, and more. Gain proactive control by automatically repositioning cameras when congestion thresholds are reached. Detection elements include congestion maps, incident detection, controller phase monitoring, detector malfunction monitoring, automatic controller database verification, and support for radar, video, and wireless devices.

KITS™ notifies you of activities that require attention or response. In addition to real-time displays, you can select from configurable priority-based alerts, to receive audible alerts, emails, or text messages. You can also receive automated scheduled reports, configured to your needs.

Resolve unexpected congestion issues with ease. When traffic incidents, inclement weather, or other events cause congestion, integrated CCTV and DMS allow you to control the response.

Give drivers critical safety and condition information across multiple channels. KITS™ offers DMS with real-time travel times, website integration, 511 and third-party ATIS, twitter feeds, and smartphone support.

View the status of all ITS devices anytime, anywhere, from one central dashboard. Management options include maps with aerials, multi-agency security, event logging, user logging, and data archiving/retrieval. With our Decision Support technology, users or the system can automatically initiate responses to congestion conditions or incidents.

Use quick commands and adaptive control to increase your response time. KITS™ allows you to remotely control your devices, providing central scheduling for TOD and special events.

Revolutionize the way you store and archive timing data. Keep a history of all timing revisions with KITS™ archive capabilities. Configuration tools include controller database editors, excel timing sheet exports, controller history tracking, a visual timing plan editor, and a DMS message editor.
