BluSTATS

BluSTATS  Processing and Analysis Software

BluSTATS is designed as a user-friendly, flexible tool to support processing and analysis of BluFAX sensor data for a wide range of applications. A software license for the BluSTATS Traffic Data Analysis software is provided with each purchase and rental of Traffax equipment. BluSTATS provides a user-friendly tool to process BluFAX data for traveltime and Origin-Destination (O-D) applications.

 BluSTATS Operation is organized around a series of modules, which include: 

• Project Setup and Configuration (show me)
  • Set up and label your project,
  • Define location of project working files, set local time, and more.
• Station Information
  • Load and process BluFAX 
  • Generate KML files, including interface with Google Earth
  • Output processed station detection data in .csv format.
  • Graph station detections
  • View and, if needed, adjust unit location and time reference information.
• Segment Information
  • Segment definintion and labeling
  • Process segments
  • User-defned filters to support processing data that include mixed traffic streams, such as vehicles and pedestrians,  
  • Generate traveltime data plots,
  • Graphic tools to support manual selection of data to mark as outlieres or include as valid data points. 
  • Produce daily traveltime, speed, and detections plots for use in reports or  PowerPoint presentations.
• Segment Summary Statistics
  • Generate segment summary statistics for 5, 15, or 60 minute time periods.

  • Segment length, number of data points, traveltime statistics (mean, median, minimum, maximum, traveltime percentiles, and standard deviation) and mean segment speed. 

  • Generate .csv files and formatted Excel reports by segment, for 5, 15, and 60 minute time periods. 

• Corridor Reports  
• • Combine segments to define routes which represent alternative paths through study area.
  • Generate corridor reports for mean and median traveltimes, mean speed, number of matched pairs,
  • Output data in .csv format, for use in Excel or other analysis software. 
• Traveltime Matrixes
  • Define and generate travel-time summary statistics for specific segments in a matrix format.
  • Specify filtering options for aggregating data for specific time periods.
  • Include or exclude data marked as outliers.
• Origin and Destination Matrixes
  • Identify stations for inclusion in matrix
  • Select data data aggregation options, by starting date and time, length of time period, number of repetitions 
  • Select  data filtering options to include/exclude outliers, time window to search for data to include (analysis time windows).
