MnDOT Traffic Camera Maximizer

Status:  Complete
Report Date:  01/15/2025

Summary:

This project involved the implementation of a Traffic Camera Maximizer (TCM). The Traffic Camera Maximizer was proposed to broaden the reach of the following MnDOT assets to improve situational awareness of driving conditions across the state: 511 public website, traffic public website, and Road Weather Information System (RWIS) cameras. To achieve the goals, the project was split into two portions. The first task was to improve the usability of the public 511 website for both desktop and mobile devices. The second task involved highlighting traffic and RWIS cameras within the 511 platform where slowdowns or inclement weather could be automatically detected, and the calculated delay would be displayed on 511. This could improve quality of real-time information.
