What is countCLOUD.pro
countCLOUD.pro is the updated traffic video processing system provided by StreetLogic Pro. It allows users a simple and cost-effective way to have their traffic videos processed into meaningful data for use in engineering and planning projects, removing the hassle and time associated with processing videos in-house.
How Does countCLOUD.pro Work
Video processing can be purchased through StreetLogic Pro's Online Store where bulk processing hours can be purchased. These hours can be used for any duration of video processing needed for five different classification breakdowns allowing for flexibility in returned data while still providing a streamlined process at the most competitive rates on the market.
The new countCLOUD.pro system provides users a project based dashboard providing access to completed and in-process counts, along with the ability to generate new counts of any duration. If this is your first time using the new countCLOUD.pro Dashboard an account will need to be created. Additional details one creating an account can be found in the countCLOUD.pro Registration Article.
Once your hours have been purchased, and traffic video collected counts can be submitted to countCLOUD.pro. To submit a count, create a project and generate an Unsubmitted Count/Counts using the PROJECTS tab. This is where you set the count duration, classification schema, and number of counts to be created. Each classification breakdown uses a different ratio for processing hours to available hours as a 13-classification count will take more resources to complete than a trail counts and 2-, 3-, 5-, or 6-classification count. These processing ratio can be seen in the countCLOUD Definitions and Rules article.
Once the UNSUBMITTED count has been generated you will be walked through the count details submittal process. Required details include providing the location reference, labelling the approaches on an aerial view of the data collection location, and entering the start date/time and duration for the required counting periods (more than one start stop time can be provided per upload). Finally, select and upload the video files and click SUBMIT. Please review the provided information before uploading to ensure everything is correct as we will process your video based on the information entered here. Once this information is submitted count's status will move from UNSUBMITTED to IN-PROCESS. It will remain in this status for up to 3 business days as the video is being processed.
If you catch a mistake in your provided information you can update the information during the 15-minute editing window. After this 15-minutes the count is locked. The count status will shift to COMPLETE once your processed data has been returned and is ready for download. If any issues were noted with your count an ERROR status will appear with information on the issue shown in the specific count's page. Once downloaded the stat us of the count will move to DOWNLOADED
