Abstract
This study focuses on collecting traffic data using drones to compensate for limitation of the data collected by the existing traffic data collection devices. Feasibility analysis was performed to verify the traffic data extracted from drone videos and optimal methodology for extracting data was established through analysis of various data reduction scenarios. It was found from this study that drones are very economical traffic data collection devices and have strength of determining the level-of-service(LOS) for uninterrupted flow condition in a very simple and intuitive way.
