10.Business Segment Information

 

We currently operate in three reportable segments: Roadway Sensors, Transportation Systems, and Agriculture and Weather Analytics.

 

The Roadway Sensors segment provides various advanced detection sensors and systems for traffic intersection management, communication systems and roadway traffic data collection applications. The Roadway Sensors product line uses advanced image processing technology and other techniques to capture and analyze sensor data through sophisticated algorithms, enabling vehicle, bicycle and pedestrian detection, as well as the transmission of both video images and data using various communication technologies. Our Roadway Sensors products include, among others, Vantage, VantageLive!, Vantage Next, VantagePegasus, VantageRadius, Vantage Vector, Velocity, SmartCycle, SmartCycle Bike Indicator, SmartSpan, VersiCam, PedTrax and P-Series products. Our Roadway Sensors segment also includes the sale of original equipment manufacturer (“OEM”) products for the traffic intersection markets, which include, among other things, traffic signal controllers and traffic signal equipment cabinets.

 

The Transportation Systems segment provides engineering and consulting services, performance measurement and traffic analytics solutions, as well as the development of transportation management and traveler information systems for the ITS industry. Our Transportation Systems services include planning, design, implementation, operation and management of surface transportation infrastructure systems. We perform analysis and study goods movement, commercial vehicle operations, provide travel demand forecasting and systems engineering, and identify mitigation measures to reduce traffic congestion. Our Transportation Systems product line includes: Iteris Signal Performance Measures ("SPM"), our advanced traveler information system solutions ClearPath 511 and Reverse 511, ClearGuide, and iPeMS, our performance measurement and information management solution as well as our commercial vehicle operations and vehicle safety compliance platforms known as CVIEW-Plus, CheckPoint, UCRLink and inspect. The Transportation Systems segment also includes the operations of AGI beginning July 2, 2019 (see Note 9, Acquisition).

 

The Agriculture and Weather Analytics segment includes ClearPath Weather, our road maintenance applications, and ClearAg, our digital agriculture platform. ClearPath Weather is a web-based solution, that includes a suite of tools that applies data assimilation and modeling technologies for assessing historical weather conditions for both short-term and long-range weather forecasts and customizable route/site weather and pavement forecasting, and providing winter road maintenance recommendations for state agencies, municipalities and for commercial companies that allow such users to create solutions to meet roadway maintenance decision needs. ClearAg solutions combine weather and agronomic data with proprietary land-surface modeling and analytics to solve complex agricultural problems and to increase the efficiency and sustainability of farmlands. We currently offer ClearAg solutions to companies in the agriculture industry, such as seed and crop protection companies, integrated food companies, and agricultural equipment manufacturers and service providers. ClearAg solutions provide weather, environment, soil and plant growth modeling to deliver smart content through ClearAg APIs and components, IMFocus APIs and ClearAg web applications.

 

The accounting policies of our reportable segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies (Note 1 – Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies). Certain corporate general and administrative expenses, including general overhead functions such as information systems, accounting, human resources, marketing, compliance costs and certain administrative expenses, as well as interest and amortization of intangible assets, are not allocated to the segments. The reportable segments are each managed separately because they manufacture and distribute distinct products or provide services with different processes. All reported segment revenues are derived from external customers. Our Chief Executive Officer, who is our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), reviews financial information at the operating segment level. Our CODM does not review assets by segment in his resource allocation, and therefore, assets by segment are not disclosed below.
