FANARAH – Transportation Studies Consultant

Smart transportation software for better urban street design decisions.

What is FANARAH?

FANARAH is a smart transportation software package that supports the transportation planning process in making the right decisions on Urban Street Design projects. This process always has gaps between the main Traffic Study and Traffic Count, Traffic Data Distribution, and Transport Modal Split.

FANARAH is an integrated desktop software that helps the Transport Planner improve the quality of input traffic data and reduces the time required for technical operations and costly traffic programs.

Two levels of processing

1. AI video processing

FANARAH uses Google Video Intelligence AI to process traffic camera videos.

Video Intelligence AI is an API programming tool. We use it through C#.NET and a SQL Server database to build better awareness of video content and improve video search, so you get more descriptive information.

2. Modelling

The study area is expressed as traffic analysis zones (TAZ). Relations between TAZs are measured by traffic volumes, determined by calibrating a Gravity Model distribution function. This builds a distribution pattern from origin-destination camera traffic count data.

Trip distribution matches origins with destinations, taking into account the relative activity at each end as well as the travel cost between them.
