HS-WIM Data Collection Description
Transportation officials rely on Weigh-In-Motion (WIM) sensors for collecting vehicle data at high speeds for highway data and traffic monitoring. Traffic volume, speed, axle counting and spacing, vehicle classifications, and vehicle weights are all part of monitoring current usage and highway planning for the future.

Strip Sensors for Data Collection Advantages
Data Collection using Weigh-In-Motion sensors enables us to evaluate the real load demands over roads and bridges. This information can be used for understanding where, when, and how overloads happen most frequently and severely. The comprehensive use of high-accuracy HS-WIM may result in considerable savings in resources for the design and maintenance of road infrastructure.
Weigh-In-Motion Strip Sensors offer a unique alternative to traditional WIM scales, providing accurate, stable, and long lasting alternative for ASTM E1318-09 Type I, Type II, Type III and COST 323 A(5), B+(7) or B(10) requirements for High Volume Data Collection and Screening for Direct Enforcement. The Strip Sensors are also OIML R134 certified for WIM uses at both low and high speeds. Additional Weigh-In-Motion Vehicle Sensor benefits include:
- Weigh Vehicles at Speeds up to 80 mph (130 km/h)
- Strain Gauge Load Cell Sensors in a Minimally Invasive Enclosure for Quick Installation
- OIML R134 Certified
