https://lnkd.in/gN5_A8JQ KEY LESSONS FROM MEDICINE Why do we still see these headlines, despite concerted efforts by governments to reduce the road toll? Why are many developed countries experiencing rising trends in traffic deaths, particularly among active travellers? Why are traffic deaths becoming more likely to kill us than less likely, in this modern era with an abundance of technolgy and intelligence? We need to be more committed to this cause. We need to be less complacent and increasingly outraged by these outcomes. We need to tackle the problem differently and better than we have done in the past. One thing is abundantly clear; what we are doing now is not rising to the challenge. The medical community learned long ago than prevention is the best cure. To prevent something (e.g. cancer, heart disease, etc.) we need to detect early signs of the outcome we seek to avoid. We need reliable predictors of future risk. We need to be proactive, not reactive. In parallel, we can't rely on crashes to inform us about transport system risk--we need to act before then. We need reliable measures of risk, and need to swiftly act on them. On most transport systems, roughly 80% of the risk is enountered at 20% of the locations. So, how can we proactively monitor 20% of system locations? Critical conflicts can now be measured continuously and affordably on transport systems using AI and video. Critical conflicts have been shown time and time again to reliably predict future crashes. Manage critical conflicts and you prevent future crashes. Reduce the most severe critical conflicts and future severe crashes will be reduced. Monitor 20% of a network and target 80% of the problem. Eliminate crashes and improve congestion, proactively. AMAG pioneered critical conflict technology starting in 2005, and are implementing our technology in 7 countries around the globe. Reach out if you'd like to learn more about how this powerful, proactive technology can reduce fatalities and serious injuries where you work and live. www.amagroup.io info@amagroup.io

We are thrilled to announce our collaboration with the City of Kitchener and Ramudden Digital to bring advanced analytics to Victoria Park. Our video analytics technology will power a new system designed to enhance the city's understanding of how this space is used. To support the city's vision for the future of Victoria Park, our SMART Ops platform will collect anonymous data on park usage. The technology will distinguish between various types of park users, including adults, children, cyclists, wheelchair users, stroller users, dog walkers, and e-scooter riders. This project marks one of the first implementations of advanced data collection in a Canadian park. Unlike traditional systems that measure only people and bikes, our classifications provide comprehensive insights into park usage. These insights are crucial for city planners to make informed, inclusive decisions that cater to the needs of all park users. We are proud to contribute to Kitchener's efforts in creating a more informed and inclusive environment for its residents and visitors. To learn more about this initiative, please read the full press release from the City of Kitchener. CTV News Article: https://lnkd.in/g5kubEvp #SmartCities #ActiveTransportation #UrbanPlanning

SMART Safety in Christchurch, NZ! We're thrilled to see our SMART Safety Monitoring technology in action in Christchurch. It's a privilege to partner with Urban Connection (NZ) on this project, as it holds tremendous potential for enhancing safety. Congratulations to everyone involved on a successful deployment!

Really excited about our new partnership with Urban Connection. Be sure to catch up with Aaron or Tony in Wellington to learn about the really great solutions they are delivering to customers.

The U.S. Department of Transportation opened the process for cities, towns, counties, Tribal governments, and metropolitan planning organizations to apply for $1.256 billion in funding for local projects that improve roadway safety. The FY' 24 Notice of Funding Opportunity for Safe Streets and Roads for All Grant Program is now available. For more information visit: https://lnkd.in/gKdY7XH4 The Advanced Mobility Analytics Group (AMAG) stands ready to support agencies applying for these grant funds and those that have already received previous rounds of funds. AMAG is witnessing the increasing demand for video-based conflict analytics to enable the profession to shift from reactive safety and risk management via crash histories to more proactive, predictive approaches. This demand is taking advantage of advancements over the past decade in video analytics, artificial intelligence (AI) used to process video data, and advanced understanding of how critical conflicts are related to crashes. AMAG is leading the transition from reactive to proactive risk management approaches and methodologies. Through our solutions, AMAG can support a number of applications related to use of these Safe Streets and Roads for All funds including: Use of deep dive safety and risk diagnostic tools to identify chronic safety and operational problems at locations that can be solved via subsequent site improvements. These tools can be very helpful in creating safety action plans. Conducting before-after evaluations of implemented safety improvements. Identifying and addressing safety risks in school zones and protecting the most vulnerable (i.e., school children). Executing real-time risk assessment to identify road-users facing imminent or trending risk so that actions can be taken to address pedestrians at risk, wrong-way drivers, excessive speeders, and red-light runners. #roadsafety #VisionZero #SS4A #pedestriansafety

This post is a great example of how AMAG develops and validates our technology, using our strong connections with research-intensive universities to facilitate peer reviews and obtain critical feedback for improvement. The end result is industry leading technology embedded within our products that is proven, accurate, and reliable. Both AMAG cofounders Shimul Haque and Tarek Sayed are leading academic researchers in critical conflict based video analytics, with Professor Sayed widely regarded as the original pioneer of this technology.

Join us for an educational webinar hosted by Urban Connection (NZ) and Advanced Mobility Analytics Group on "Reducing Fatalities & Serious Injuries Using AI" where we will be exploring cutting-edge AI and video analytics solutions that are revolutionizing safety and mobility. Our speakers, including Aaron Campion, Simon Washington, and Dr Jason Deller will delve into the power of AI-powered video analytics and its transformative applications in our cities.
