Long-term Trends
Comparing total count volumes by month or by year lets you see clear long-term trends.
This analysis is invaluable when determining the overall state of active transportation facilities and identifying a need for improvement.

Profiles & seasonality
When looking at count volumes on a bike path or multi-use trail, the hourly profile reveals a lot about how people use the facility. For instance, a bike path with daily peaks at 9am and 5pm suggests that it is primarily used by people going to work.
Speed and Traffic
Measure how fast bikes, e-bikes, and e-scooters go to inform your decisions on safety and conflicts of use. Should pedestrians be given their own sidewalk instead of a multi-use path? How much should a bike lane curve to reduce speeds and crashes? Should signs be put up to regulate how fast people go? Incorporating speeds is a way to analyze data at a higher level.
Weather analysis
Rain, wind, and cold temperatures are often perceived as major obstacles to cycling or walking. Using Eco-Visio's weather analysis feature, you can concretely measure the impact of weather on count volumes and make the right planning decisions, without over- or underestimating the impact of the weather. Often times, favorable or unfavorable weather makes a difference, but the degree of change is usually a mystery.
Events
Before and after studies are essential ways to track the success of your projects. Eco-Visio elevates this analysis by taking special events and public holidays into account, giving you a more accurate picture of the effects of your actions.
When you view data without factoring in events, you might be missing out on key information. For instance, an increase in counts may be linked to the new facility, but also to a public holiday or a special event like a marathon.
Predicting visitor numbers
Forecasting future visitor numbers based on historical data could be a game-changer for many organizations. For example, to anticipate a rush of tourists during a holiday to properly allocate your staff. This is a feature we will be integrating into the platform over the coming months.
Using AI to produce relevant analysis
In Eco-Visio, advanced functionalities use AI to highlight relevant insights (e.g.: a significant rise in counts on a Saturday, a strong weather impact on pedestrian traffic, etc.). A chatbot also lets you query the software in casual language to obtain the graph you need (e.g. "I'd like to see last month's scooter traffic in both directions on Queen street").
A tool for data management and quality assurance
In addition to generating powerful analyses and dashboards, Eco-Visio also monitors and manages the quality of your data.
Even with the best counters, external factors can interrupt your counts, creating null or abnormal count data. To ensure your decisions are based on complete information, Eco-Visio includes a fully-integrated feature that detects anomalies and corrects them if necessary.
For longer periods, our data experts will reconstruct your missing or inconsistent data based on scientific, peer-reviewed methodology.
This way, you can rest assured that you will have the consistent data you need for your analyses, even when unexpected things happen!
