Hand-held Traffic Data Collectors
JAMAR Technologies hand-held Traffic Data Collectors are known around the world
as the easiest way to collect intersection data for quick analysis. Don't waste another
minute manually transcribing numbers or typing them into a spreadsheet. Our hand-
held data collectors do the tedious work for you, and data can be easily downloaded
to a computer. These units are easy to use, accurate and reliable. They will save
you time and money
Both data collectors can collect intersection turning movement data. The DB-400
can classify these movements for up to three classes of vehicles while the TDC-12
can classify these movements for up to 14 classes of vehicles. The TDC-12 can also
collect several additional types of data. For more information on the differences between these models, view our
comparison chart.
DB-400 - Turning Movement Counter
The DB-400 is an electronic hand-held device that enables you to do the most common
of all manual traffic data studies: intersection turning movement counts.
The DB-400 is simple to use. An OFF/ON switch on top of the unit is used to turn it on
and off. A 4-line by 20-character display helps you select the proper entries. All options
are clearly displayed, with the currently selected option shown with a blinking highlight.
The bottom lines of the display explain the option that is highlighted.
Two buttons are all that are used to move from menu to menu, and to select from the
options shown on the display. The TAB key is used to cycle through the options while the DO key is used to select
an option. If you move the highlight too far and over-shoot the desired option, just keep pressing the TAB key until
it is re-selected.
The DB-400 is designed to make collecting turning movement data easy and accurate. The buttons are arranged
to simulate a standard intersection. There are 16 buttons, with 12 normally used for the left, through, and right
movements from each of the four approach directions. The additional four buttons are user-defined; they can be
used for bicycles, pedestrians, or whatever you want.
Since the DB-400 looks like an intersection, doing a count is very intuitive. If a car makes a left turn from an
approach, you simply push the button that shows a left turn from that direction. The DB-400 keeps track of
everything else for you. At the end of every time interval, the data is automatically stored, so there is no need for
technicians to take their eyes off the intersection to write down numbers.
While you record turning movements, you also have the option to classify the vehicles recorded in up to three
separate classes using the DB-400's 'Bank' buttons. Trucks and other heavy vehicles can be stored separate
from passenger vehicles, and percentage breakdowns can be determined.
Multiple studies can be stored in the DB-400, using up to a total of 312 intervals of data. For each count, the unit
stores the date and time, the number of intervals used, a site code, and the data.
At any convenient time, you can transfer the data to your computer through the serial port to our PETRAPro
software, which allows you to easily read, edit and store the data, as well as print reports, without ever having to
manually enter data.

TDC-12 - Traffic Engineering in the Palm of Your Hand
The TDC-12 is the single most powerful hand-held traffic data collector in the world today.
Not only does it provide all the features of our DB-400 data collector, it adds to them,
creating the most versatile traffic data collection tool currently available.
At any convenient time, you can transfer the data to your computer through the serial port
to our PETRAPro software. The PETRAPro software allows you to easily read, edit and
store the data, as well as print a variety of reports and graphs, without ever having to
manually enter data.
Enhanced Turning Movements - With the DB-400 you can collect turning movement data for up to three
separate classes. But, what if you need to know turning movement volumes for a full range of classifications?
The TDC-12 answers this by giving you the ability to store turning movements for up to 14 classes of vehicles.
Vehicles can be classified based on the Federal Highway Administration’s standards, or by a user defined
scheme of up to 14 classes. This is accomplished by the addition of 14 class buttons at the bottom of the data
collector. You also are given several options on how to record the data with these keys.
Stop Sign Delay - Accurately record queue lengths and vehicle delays at a stop sign controlled intersection.
Data can be collected for one or two lanes using just two or four keys. Can also be used at low volume
signalized intersections.
Signalized Intersection Delay - Collect data that can be analyzed for several delay parameters. This data
collection uses well known traffic engineering techniques to gather usable data in a matter of minutes.
Vehicle Classification - Perform classification studies with up to 16 different classes for 1, 2 or 3 directions.
Classes can be user defined or based on FHWA standards.
Spot Speed with Classification - Get a quick snap shot of vehicle speeds without having to install an
automatic traffic recorder. Studies can be for speed only, or speed by vehicle classification.
Multi-direction Gap - Measure traffic gaps in one direction, or two directions with a combined gap. You can
also record vehicle volumes while tracking gaps.
Saturation Flow - Don't rely on estimates when doing analysis. The TDC-12 allows you to directly measure
actual saturation flow rates, and also collect data for signal timings, arrival types and lost time.
Time-Stamped Raw Data - Is there a specific type of data collection that you would like to do that the data
collectors don’t? Don’t let this stop you from getting your data, just use the TDC-12’s time-stamping capability. In
this mode, whenever a key is pressed the unit stores the key number and the exact time it was pressed. Each
key press is stored with a time stamp accurate to one-hundredth (.01) of a second. This raw data can be
downloaded and exported into Excel or other programs for custom analysis. Now you can do literally any type of
data collection using a TDC-12 and your own program.
