The MetroCount documentation also states these instructions apply to V4.06 of the Traffic Executive software. Applicability of this article to later versions will need to be confirmed.
A RAMM-compliant data format is available for use in the MetroCount Traffic Executive application. Please follow the steps below when using the MetroCount Traffic Executive software to process and save traffic data for upload into RAMM.
1. Select New Report and tag the relevant dataset.
2. In the Report Vortex screen, select the Special report type.
3. Select the RAMM/Roman Class Volume report.
4. A prompt will appear which requires the Report type of xxxx to be selected, and the relevant AWM site data to be entered. The MetroCount software requires the entered data to match the number of characters in the brackets next to each field. Therefore a preceding zero(s) may be necessary to meet this requirement e.g. the road number of 91 would be entered as 000091.
5. When the report has been generated, select File > Save Report as... to save the report. The file name must not change from the default file name the MetroCount software has generated.
6. The saved report file is now ready to be submitted to PNG DoWH for upload into RAMM.
If you are using MetroCount Traffic Executive v3, please contact PNG DoWH as additional configuration files will be required for the Report Type.
