Vehicle Counting
Your cameras already see every vehicle that passes. Vehicle Counting turns that into a continuous, accurate number — by entrance, by direction, across your whole site.
How many vehicles actually use your entrance, your road, your site? Clear Watch Vehicle Counting replaces guesses and manual tallies with a continuous, accurate number.
Vehicle Counting tracks the vehicles passing through a key area and turns them into a running count — and when your traffic flows through several points, counts from multiple areas are summed into a single figure. Instead of hiring a traffic study or trusting a gate arm's clicker, your existing cameras deliver a continuous measurement of how many vehicles moved through, and in which direction.
Counting lines and directions are configured per camera channel, so you decide exactly what counts: inbound at the north gate, outbound at the south, total crossings on the access road. Totals from several channels aggregate into one site-wide figure, which makes it practical to report an entire facility — or an entire corridor — as one number. This is built for the situations where a continuous figure is more useful than individual events: traffic volume measurement, entrance and exit monitoring, and site access reporting.
What It Does
Who Uses It
Municipalities & Traffic Departments
Measure real traffic volume on corridors and intersections continuously instead of commissioning periodic counts — data that supports signal timing decisions, road planning, and grant applications.
- Continuous volume counts replace periodic manual studies on key corridors
- Hourly and daily data supports signal timing adjustments and infrastructure planning
- Documented traffic counts available for grant applications and public reporting
Parking Operators
Know exactly how many vehicles entered and exited each facility per hour and per day. Reconcile counts against revenue to spot leakage, and staff booths to actual traffic instead of habit.
- Hourly and daily entry/exit counts per facility — not estimates, actual numbers
- Count-to-revenue reconciliation surfaces leakage and payment gaps
- Staff schedules aligned to real traffic peaks instead of historical assumptions
Logistics Yards & Industrial Sites
A continuous count of gate traffic gives operations a real number for truck throughput — and a baseline that makes an unusual spike in after-hours movement obvious.
- Accurate truck throughput count across every gate — logged continuously
- Baseline traffic data makes after-hours anomalies immediately visible
- Entry and exit counts feed operations dashboards and shift reporting
Campuses & Event Venues
Aggregate counts across every entrance into one arrival figure, so parking, shuttles, and staffing decisions run on live volume instead of last year's estimate.
- Multi-entrance counts aggregated into one live arrival total across the campus or venue
- Real-time volume drives parking direction, shuttle dispatch, and gate staffing
- Post-event counts available for capacity planning and future event logistics
Commercial Real Estate & Retail Centers
Vehicle traffic is the top of your funnel. Daily and hourly counts show which entrances carry the load, how marketing affects drive-in traffic, and what to tell prospective tenants with data behind it.
- Entrance-level counts show which access points carry the most traffic — and which don't
- Marketing campaign impact measurable in drive-in volume before and after
- Documented traffic data supports leasing conversations and tenant retention
How It Works
Vehicle Counting runs on the same Clear Watch cameras that protect your property — security after hours, intelligence during the day. Counts accumulate continuously into reports your operations team actually uses, while the identical camera views feed Clear Watch's 24/7 monitored security services the rest of the time. One camera investment, two returns: you don't choose between protection and data.
FAQs
-
Yes. Counting lines are configured per channel, and totals from several channels are summed into a single figure — so a site with four gates or a corridor with several segments reports as one number.
-
Yes. Counting lines and directions are configured per channel, so inbound and outbound traffic can be counted separately or combined depending on what you need to measure.
-
It uses cameras you already have, covers open roads and wide entrances that loops can't, and aggregates multiple points into one figure — no pavement cutting, no per-lane hardware to maintain.
