What is the study?
Drone survey counts support observation of intersections, roundabouts, corridors, parking and large traffic environments where appropriate permissions and footage quality are in place.
Why it matters
A drone survey counts provides a clear, reviewable evidence base for large intersections, roundabouts, corridors decisions.
How it works
The approved brief defines locations, observation periods, movements, classifications, intervals and deliverables before collection or analysis begins.
Methodology
Methodology is agreed against the study objective, location type, relevant local requirements and required level of detail.
Data collection
Observation locations, directions, time periods and appropriate source material are confirmed before the agreed collection approach is applied.
Data processing
Recorded observations are organised into the agreed class, movement and interval structure for review and delivery.
Vehicle classification
Vehicle classes, active-travel requirements and direction definitions are set in the project specification.
Time intervals
Interval length, peak periods and reporting windows are agreed before work begins.
Typical project requirements
Useful briefs include locations, dates, duration, service scope, classifications, movement requirements and output format.
Deliverables
Deliverables can include structured tables, summaries and reporting formats agreed at project setup.
Quality control
Checks focus on completeness, consistency and adherence to the approved specification before delivery.
Country relevance
Terminology, classifications and output conventions are confirmed for the relevant country and project brief.
Privacy and security
Sensitive project information should be exchanged only through approved project workflows, not public forms.
