Indiana Department of Transportation Certifies NovaRoam Wireless Router for ITS Project

Business Wire, July 27, 2005

CINCINNATI -- Nova Engineering's NovaRoam(R) ED900 Wireless Router has been approved as a key component for Phase I installation of Indiana Department of Transportation's (INDOT) Advanced Traffic Monitoring System (ATMS). Already installed throughout the I-465 beltway surrounding Indianapolis, NovaRoams provide long-range wireless communications for remote traffic sensor data.

INDOT's approval follows the successful ATMS installation in the Indianapolis area, which monitors traffic congestion, supplies information to travelers, and provides incident response capabilities. ATMS is a deployment of the overarching TrafficWise system. Similar to other states' Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) projects, TrafficWise is focused on monitoring and minimizing non-recurrent traffic congestion issues caused by accidents and work zones, as well as monitoring roadway weather conditions.

NovaRoam was chosen by INDOT based on the product's unique fusion of far-reaching communication range, secure high-speed data transfer, and ad hoc mesh networking capabilities. NovaRoam's mesh networking technology automatically re-routes data when a wireless communication path is no longer available, thus improving the reliability of the network. Furthermore, with NovaRoam there are no recurring fees or licenses, making this solution more affordable than licensed radios or cellular-based service.

"We are extremely pleased to provide another successful deployment of NovaRoam to aid in public safety," said Michael Rauf, Director of Marketing & Sales for Nova Engineering. "As a critical piece of ATMS, NovaRoam will provide the robust data communications necessary to ensure that time-sensitive sensor data reaches INDOT's decision center."

With final approval from INDOT on the ATMS Phase I installation, the Phase II deployment is already underway. Phase II will expand the ATMS system's coverage along Indianapolis' I-465 circle freeway, as well as portions of the I-69, I-70, I-65, and I-74 highways. Accordingly, dozens of NovaRoams will be employed to provide wireless data communications in this next phase of the project.
