The Heavy Vehicle Electronic License Plate Program (HELP) project is a multi-state, multi-national research effort to design and test an integrated heavy vehicle monitoring system using automated vehicle identification (AVI), automated vehicle classification (AVC), and weigh-in-motion (WIM) technologies. The operational field test of the HELP program is known as the Crescent project. Its goal is to demonstrate the various technologies that would comprise a system whereby a truck entering in British Columbia, can drive through the entire crescent-shaped network, from British Columbia to Texas, without having to stop at other weigh stations or ports-of-entry.
