AccuWeather/INRIX deliver Vizzion traffic cameras for broadcast
Vizzion traffic cameras are now available to broadcasters on StoryTeller, AccuWeather’s on-air interactive touchscreen solution. StoryTeller's INRIX Traffic App allows presenters to display and interact with Vizzion’s traffic camera snapshots and live streaming video alongside projected travel times, maps, and weather data.
Presenters are able to view camera locations as a layer displayed on the interactive map and then tap camera icons to display single or multiple camera feeds at a time. Vizzion’s entire traffic camera web service is actively monitored and has built in caching features to prevent non-useful images from going to air. Storyteller's INRIX Traffic App customers have access to 33,000 cameras in over 300 cities across the US to help their traffic reports come to life.
