Q-Free is awarded Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) Traffic Video and Detection (TVD) task order

Partnering in 2011, Iteris and Q-Free, successfully deployed a comprehensive solution for sharing video and data that can readily adapt to rapidly evolving technologies and information dissemination through the Transportation Video and Data (TV&D) project for VDOT.

Now continuing the maintenance and operations for the TVD project, Q-Free’s services provide 24×7 monitoring and on-call support and a 99% uptime service level agreement (SLA) as well as a software warranty for all TVD data applications. Q-Free will also perform system configuration and release management, including preventive maintenance, routine code updates, and user management within the system. This task order consists of three tasks. Q-Free will operate and maintain:

  1. The back-end data services which ingest data from VDOT’s Traffic Operations Centers and the State Data Gateway, store the data in a TVD database, and provide processed feeds and database access to registered users through http://www.vdotdatasharing.org/ .
  2. The secondary data center (referred to as BTP) for the TVD data services.
  3. The statewide travel time engine at both the primary and secondary data centers.

“As we continue our partnership with Iteris and our longstanding relationship with VDOT, the Q-Free team is proud to contribute the innovative solutions necessary to ensure the continued success of the TVD system on this critical project.” commented Christopher Melton, Managing Director for Q-Free.
