The Spectrum Traffic Data Exchange was rapidly developed and launched in direct response to the Covid-19 pandemic. As the pandemic continues to unfold, the transportation network is experiencing an unprecedented drop in traffic due to the shelter in place orders now in effect to prevent the spread of the virus.
To help the traffic engineering and planning community continue its critical planning work during the pandemic, an easy to use, quick and efficient data exchange was launched at https://exchange.spectrumtraffic.com.
The Spectrum Traffic Data Exchange allows its customers to leverage their existing traffic data assets by optionally entering all or some of their data library into the Exchange where other third parties can then purchase that data using credits. By becoming a publisher of data, a Spectrum customer earns credits in the Exchange whenever its data is acquired by another party. Earned credits can then in turn be expended to acquire access to data in the Exchange, converted into cash on deposit to purchase Spectrum services, or even converted directly to cash to earn revenue.
For non-publishers, credits can be purchased in the Exchange using any major credit card for a reasonable cost giving all members of the community access to high quality, auditable traffic data including video for recent studies.
First 100 credits - $12 / credit, additional credits at $8 / credit.
- TMC - Less than a year - 16 credits
- TMC - 1 year old - 12 credits
- TMC - 2 years old - 8 credits
- TMC - 3 years or older - 4 credits
Enrolment is free of charge. If you are already a Spectrum customer, just login in to http://exchange.spectrumtraffic.com with your same Spectrum AC login credentials. If you are not currently a Spectrum customer, you can still purchase data on the Exchange by simply enroling online or contact us directly at 1-888-670-3282.
