About the service
I provide a professional mobile drone traffic flow study service for businesses that need accurate, on-site intersection data without installing permanent sensors or hiring a full traffic-engineering crew. Using a compact quadcopter launched from a legally cleared vantage point, I fly fixed, stable overhead passes above the intersection footprint and record continuous high-resolution video across the time blocks you need covered — typically morning peak, midday, and evening peak, or a custom multi-hour window you specify.
From the raw footage I manually and semi-automatically tally vehicle counts by direction and movement type (through, left-turn, right-turn), pedestrian and cyclist crossings, and queue lengths at each approach, then translate the counts into a clear flow-direction diagram and turning-movement summary. Peak-hour factor, directional split, and gap patterns are noted where the footage supports it, so the numbers are usable, not just raw tallies.
Deliverables include a written summary report with annotated charts and diagrams, the underlying count tables in spreadsheet form, and the source video clips organized by time block, so your own engineers or consultants can re-check any number against the footage. I coordinate flight timing around local drone regulations and site permissions before the shoot, and I am comfortable working from a brief describing only the intersection address and the business question you are trying to answer — new access point, signal timing complaint, parking-lot entrance conflict, or a before/after comparison for a nearby development. Turnaround from flight day to final report is typically within the stated project period, with a short call available beforehand to confirm exactly which movements and hours matter most for your decision.
