This handbook is intended to assist engineers and technicians with the design, layout, and operation of a video imaging vehicle detection system (VIVDS). This assistance is provided in three ways. First, the handbook identifies the optimal detection design and layout. Second, it provides guidelines for achieving an optimal or near-optimal camera location and field of view. Third, it provides guidelines for laying out the VIVDS detectors such that they will provide safe and efficient operation. Finally, guidance is provided on the need for and schedule of VIVDS maintenance activities. Some of the guidance provided in this document was obtained from a review of the literature and from interviews with TxDOT staff. Some guidance was also developed using the geometric relationships of camera optics and the principles of detection design. The report by Bonneson and Abbas (1) documents these development activities. In particular, it describes the rationale underlying the guidance and the validation of some guidelines based on simulation or field data. / Supplementary Notes: See also PB2003-104201.
