10 Current WIM systems serve as traffic monitoring technology that can capture, calculate, store, and even transmit to a remote location these types of information: vehicle axle weights, gross vehicle weights, axle spacing, vehicle classification, vehicle speed, and traffic counts -- all obtained by measuring vehicle weights at highway speeds. As WIM technology has advanced, WIM applications have grown from the original axle weight measurements to now include information for pavement and bridge design, asset management and load ratings; commercial vehicle weight enforcement screening; and freight planning and logistics.
