Abstract

This paper analyzes factors influencing directional traffic volume estimation at signalized intersection using MAC address data. The impact of traffic volume level and intersection shape for directional traffic volume estimation accuracy is discussed based on actual data. Then, field surveys to collect Bluetooth MAC address data have been conducted with Video survey data for comparing with estimation results. Through directional traffic volume estimation by MAC address data, we found that not only the effect of traffic volume level and shape of the intersection, but also both traffic congestion and the amounts of heavy vehicles may influence those estimations.
