Abstract: This report presents the results of TO 5302, Extracting More Information from the Existing Freeway Traffic Monitoring Infrastructure. This report represents significant advances in the PATH sponsored research into vehicle reidentification from conventional loop detectors, first by extending the methodology across major merge and diverge freeway sections. Second, it extends the methodology to single loop detectors. The report also extends the understanding of traffic phenomena impacting both traffic flow and the performance of the reidentification algorithms. It examines the impacts of lane change maneuvers on delay and develops a model to capture these impacts.
