Beat the Traffic, a leading provider of real-time traffic information for broadcast media and mobile devices, and TrafficLand, the largest authorised aggregator of live traffic video in the US, have signed an agreement that allows TrafficLand's video feeds to be incorporated into the Beat the Traffic 3D solution for media partners. Effective 1 January, 2012, this partnership will allow broadcasters throughout the US to supplement their traffic reports with live traffic video in addition to other real-time traffic information.Through agreements with more than 60 state and local transportation agencies, TrafficLand provides live traffic video feeds from more than 11,000 cameras worldwide, including coverage in 148 US cities. Beat the Traffic 3D currently includes live but still traffic images, whereas TrafficLand's patented technology captures thousands of closed circuit television (CCTV) video feeds directly from the camera networks of local and state transportation agencies, standardises them, and provides more reliable access with fewer delays. The new partnership represents a huge upgrade for 4108 Beat The Traffic 3D users, who can now air live video of traffic events as they happen."TrafficLand's offering is truly one-of-a-kind and a wonderful complement to Beat the Traffic 3D," said Andre Gueziec, CEO of Beat the Traffic. "Our media customers and prospects have been asking for live video feeds for some time, and we responded by teaming with the undisputed leader in the field."
