Did you know that speed variance, the difference in speed between the fastest and slowest drivers on a road, can often be a greater predictor of crash risk than high average speeds alone?

When vehicles travel at vastly different speeds on the same corridor, lane-changing maneuvers and sudden braking events increase dramatically. Comprehensive speed distribution studies give traffic engineers the full picture beyond basic averages, providing the baseline data needed to evaluate pace speed, identify speed differentials, and design targeted safety interventions.

Don't rely on simple averages to evaluate corridor safety. In addition to mid-block segments, Quality Counts can also capture vehicle speeds directly through intersections. Partner with Quality Counts to capture high-precision speed distribution data for your next safety audit:

When you see cameras set up at an intersection, it is natural to wonder what they are capturing and why.

Our temporary camera deployments are short-term, project-specific studies conducted to help transportation agencies make informed infrastructure decisions. Here is a clear look at what our technology does (and what it doesn't do):

What our camera deployments do:
🔹Measures traffic volumes, turning movements, and multimodal activity (vehicles, cyclists, and pedestrians).
🔹Analyzes corridor safety: Evaluates user interactions to help engineers design safer intersections and complete streets.
🔹Delivers accurate, ground-truthed data: Combines automated video processing and machine learning with rigorous human QA/QC review for maximum accuracy.

What our camera deployments do not do:
🔹We do not record or track personal identifiable information, drivers, or individual vehicles.
🔹Equipment is deployed for defined study periods to collect baseline data, then removed.

Our goal is simple: deliver accurate, objective transportation data to help planners and engineers build safer, more efficient communities.

Navigating state procurement requirements shouldn't create delays before your transportation project even gets off the ground.

Quality Counts is prequalified with Department of Transportation (DOT) agencies across the majority of states that maintain formal prequalification requirements. Our technical methodologies, safety protocols, and operational standards are thoroughly vetted to comply with rigorous state engineering benchmarks, giving public agencies and prime consultants a trusted, friction-free contracting path.

Ensure your data collection partner meets strict regulatory standards from day one.

Did you know that traffic signal timing plans typically lose 3% to 5% of their operational efficiency every year due to evolving traffic patterns?

Without updated count data, minor shifts in community growth, freight movement, or commuter habits quietly compound over time, resulting in increased intersection delay, unnecessary vehicle emissions, and degraded corridor performance. Regular, high-precision turning movement counts combined with Signal Time and Phasing information (SPAT) provide traffic engineers with the baseline data required to re-optimize signal timing and maintain peak network performance.

Don't let outdated data compromise your roadway performance. Partner with Quality Counts to secure high-precision count data for your next signal retiming project: https://www.qualitycounts.net/

Managing traffic data across multiple departments, offices, and projects doesn’t need to mean digging through outdated spreadsheets and fragmented local drives.

DataPoint is our cloud-based traffic data management platform designed to give agencies and consultants a single place to easily find, visualize, and share their traffic count data. By connecting mid-block, intersection, and multimodal counts through an intuitive GIS interface, DataPoint makes it easier to see where data has already been collected, communicate across teams, and get more value from historical datasets.

DataPoint can also help turn count data into useful network-wide insights, including volume-to-capacity ratios, Level of Service (LOS) analysis, and historical growth trends.

Streamline your workflow and turn scattered datasets into a centralized visual resource for your entire organization.

When communicating traffic safety and operational issues, video data speaks for itself. Through our video analytics platform, DataLens, agencies can easily query video footage to stitch together custom highlight reels of specific vehicle movements, classifications, or high-risk near-miss events.

This makes sharing complex traffic behavior remarkably simple, whether you're aligning internally with engineering teams or presenting critical safety concerns to elected officials and the public. By turning raw video into clear, visual proof, DataLens helps you build consensus and gain support for infrastructure improvements in a format everyone can easily understand.

Clear communication drives real progress. Quality Counts gives you the tools to bridge the gap between complex data and impactful messaging.

Did you know those permanent cameras mounted above traffic signals can do way more than capture video?

Many jurisdictions already have these cameras in place, but the rich data contained in their recorded footage often goes untapped. Through our proprietary software, DataLens, Quality Counts can process third-party, point-in-time video files (just as we would process footage collected using our own temporary cameras) and transform that footage into actionable transportation data without installing new hardware.

We are able to extract accurate turning movement counts, classify vehicle types, and even perform proactive safety analyses by detecting and quantifying near-miss events before crashes happen.

Unlocking hidden value from existing infrastructure is what we do best. Quality Counts helps transportation teams turn recorded footage from existing camera systems into powerful data collection and safety-analysis tools, with no additional field installation required.

Parking is more than just counting empty spaces. Understanding how, when, and why parking is used helps communities improve accessibility, reduce congestion, and make smarter infrastructure investments.

Quality Counts provides comprehensive parking studies using advanced data collection technology and proven QA/QC processes to provide accurate insights into occupancy, turnover, duration, and utilization. Whether you're planning new developments, optimizing existing facilities, or evaluating parking policies, our reliable data helps transportation professionals make confident, data-driven decisions.
