Cubic and SWIM.AI Expand TidalWave Nationwide with Deployments in Nine Cities

More cities manage traffic in real-time and
save on data collection and cloud storage costs with intelligent
edge analytics within their ATMS traffic management system
Cubic Corporation (NYSE:CUB) today announced Trafficware, which
operates within its Cubic Transportation Systems (CTS) business
division and SWIM.AI, a Silicon Valley-based supplier of enterprise
software solutions for edge and streaming data, have significantly
expanded nationally their joint service, TidalWave. Introduced a
year ago, TidalWave is a live traffic and traffic management
information service powered by edge computing and machine
learning.
Currently nine cities and counties use TidalWave including Las
Vegas, Nevada; Palo Alto, California; Greensboro, North Carolina;
Oklahoma City, Oklahoma; Jacksonville and Gainesville, Florida;
Norwalk, Connecticut; Prince Georges County, Maryland; and Clark
County, Washington. More than a dozen other cities are also in the
process of deploying TidalWave.
TidalWave provides superior delivery of high resolution and
accurate live data for city intersections and traffic locations
delivering results in less than a second after actual intersection
changes. This immediacy enables optimal vehicle routing using
actual intersection/light behavior and traffic locations, including
forward predictions of future behavior.
“TidalWave was designed to address a variety of real-time
traffic applications including connected vehicles, smart cities and
Internet of Things (IoT) markets,” said Joe Custer, vice president
and general manager of Trafficware, Cubic Transportation Systems.
“The speed at which we capture and report traffic/intersection data
is incredibly valuable to cities and counties, so it is gratifying
to see it expand so rapidly.”
The SWIM technology stack that underpins the TidalWave service
delivers unprecedented performance for traffic data processing in
real-time, operating at a fraction of the cost of traditional
systems and delivering real-time information to city services and
third-party applications.
To achieve high performance and low latency, the software
locally analyzes data, creates live digital twins of every junction
and reduces the raw data volumes by a factor of over 1,000.
Performing analysis locally in the city (whether at the central
ATMS or on controllers at street level) enables the system to
achieve massive infrastructure cost savings. In addition, the
service generates new revenues for the city by making data and
insights commercially available in real-time to third parties such
as navigation applications, vehicle owners, logistics businesses
and connected cars.
TidalWave was designed using a software architecture that
combines advanced traffic management technology, edge computing and
instant local analytics to deliver real-time data and predictive
machine learning for the connected vehicle, smart cities, smart
intersections and the IoT markets.
The growing power of edge computing has the horsepower to lead
the ITS market into the next transformative era of technology,
primarily because it is the fastest, most scalable, more economical
and most reliable traffic data streaming service to come to
market.
“DataFabric can analyze, learn and predict in real-time, making
TidalWave incredibly powerful and accurate,” said Ramana Jonnala,
chief executive officer of SWIM.AI. “Its ability to work on
existing hardware and deliver precise, granular traffic and
intersection data instantly in some of the most congested, highly
trafficked cities is extremely valuable.”
Today, most routing and logistics applications rely on
historical cellular GPS data to measure roadway congestion and
estimate travel times. In order to determine traffic congestion on
arterial corridors, the applications assume that all cell phones
are located in moving vehicles and reflect current conditions. The
speed and accuracy with which the data is collected, analyzed and
made available is significantly delayed and often does not reflect
the actual experience of drivers.
The TidalWave service is available nationally. For more
