Daily utilization metrics for data.lacity.org and geohub.lacity.org. Updated monthly

New York City Department of Transportation (NYC DOT) uses Automated Traffic Recorders (ATR) to collect traffic sample volume counts at bridge crossings and roadways. These counts do not cover the entire year, and the number of days counted per location may vary from year to year. Also see Automated Traffic Volume Counts: https://data.cityofnewyork.us/Transportation/Automated-Traffic-Volume-Counts/7ym2-wayt

Traffic-related data collected by the Boston Transportation Department, as well as other City departments and State agencies. Various types of counts: Turning Movement Counts, Automated Traffic Recordings, Pedestrian Counts, Delay Studies, and Gap Studies.

~_Turning Movement Counts (TMC)_ present the number of motor vehicles, pedestrians, and cyclists passing through the particular intersection. Specific movements and crossings are recorded for all street approaches involved with the intersection. This data is used in traffic signal retiming programs and for signal requests. Counts are typically conducted for 2-, 4-, 11-, and 12-Hr periods.

~_Automated Traffic Recordings (ATR)_ record the volume of motor vehicles traveling along a particular road, measures of travel speeds, and approximations of the class of the vehicles (motorcycle, 2-axle, large box truck, bus, etc). This type of count is conducted only along a street link/corridor, to gather data between two intersections or points of interest. This data is used in travel studies, as well as to review concerns about street use, speeding, and capacity. Counts are typically conducted for 12- & 24-Hr periods.

~_Pedestrian Counts (PED)_ record the volume of individual persons crossing a given street, whether at an existing intersection or a mid-block crossing. This data is used to review concerns about crossing safety, as well as for access analysis for points of interest. Counts are typically conducted for 2-, 4-, 11-, and 12-Hr periods.

~_Delay Studies (DEL)_ measure the delay experienced by motor vehicles due to the effects of congestion. Counts are typically conducted for a 1-Hr period at a given intersection or point of intersecting vehicular traffic.

~_Gap Studies (GAP)_ record the number of gaps which are typically present between groups of vehicles traveling through an intersection or past a point on a street. This data is used to assess opportunities for pedestrians to cross the street and for analyses on vehicular “platooning”. Counts are typically conducted for a specific 1-Hr period at a single point of crossing.

The census count of vehicles on city streets is normally reported in the form of Average Daily Traffic (ADT) counts. These counts provide a good estimate for the actual number of vehicles on an average weekday at select street segments. Specific block segments are selected for a count because they are deemed as representative of a larger segment on the same roadway. ADT counts are used by transportation engineers, economists, real estate agents, planners, and others professionals for planning and operational analysis. The frequency for each count varies depending on City staff’s needs for analysis in any given area. This report covers the counts taken in our City during the past 12 years approximately.

Here are a few use cases for this project:

1. Autonomous Vehicles Navigation: The "Carla traffic dataset" can be used to develop and improve algorithms for autonomous vehicles, enabling them to effectively identify other road users, traffic lights, and various traffic signs, improving the cars’ ability to navigate safely in different weather conditions including fog.

2. Traffic Management Systems: The dataset could be leveraged to create advanced traffic management systems, identifying car, bike, or pedestrian movement, detecting traffic light states, and understanding if road users respect speed limits (30, 60, 90 km/h signs). This could improve urban traffic flow and increase overall road safety.

3. Driver Assistance Systems: The dataset could be used to develop advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) that could alert drivers of pedestrians, other vehicles, traffic signs, and the status of traffic lights, particularly in foggy or difficult conditions.

4. Safety Testing for Vehicle Manufacturers: Companies manufacturing cars, bikes, or motorbikes could use the data to carry out safety testing under different situations, including different weather conditions and traffic light changes.

5. Virtual Driving Simulation: Game developers or driving schools could use this model to develop realistic driving simulations. The players or trainee drivers would need to respond correctly and promptly to real-world traffic situations like recognizing speed signs, traffic lights, and other road users.

Linear network representing the estimated traffic flows for roads and highways managed by the Ministry of Transport and Sustainable Mobility (MTMD). These flows are obtained using a statistical estimation method applied to data from more than 4,500 collection sites spread over the main roads of Quebec. It includes DJMA (annual average daily flow), DJME (summer average daily flow), DJME (summer average daily flow (June, July, August, September) and DJMH (average daily winter flow (December, January, February, March) as well as other traffic data. It is important to note that these values are calculated for total traffic directions.

This dataset contains the current estimated speed for about 1250 segments covering 300 miles of arterial roads. For a more detailed description, please go to https://tas.chicago.gov, click the About button at the bottom of the page, and then the MAP LAYERS tab. The Chicago Traffic Tracker estimates traffic congestion on Chicago’s arterial streets (nonfreeway streets) in real-time by continuously monitoring and analyzing GPS traces received from Chicago Transit Authority (CTA) buses. Two types of congestion estimates are produced every ten minutes: 1) by Traffic Segments and 2) by Traffic Regions or Zones. Congestion estimate by traffic segments gives the observed speed typically for one-half mile of a street in one direction of traffic. Traffic Segment level congestion is available for about 300 miles of principal arterials. Congestion by Traffic Region gives the average traffic condition for all arterial street segments within a region. A traffic region is comprised of two or three community areas with comparable traffic patterns. 29 regions are created to cover the entire city (except O’Hare airport area). This dataset contains the current estimated speed for about 1250 segments covering 300 miles of arterial roads. There is much volatility in traffic segment speed. However, the congestion estimates for the traffic regions remain consistent for relatively longer period. Most volatility in arterial speed comes from the very nature of the arterials themselves. Due to a myriad of factors, including but not limited to frequent intersections, traffic signals, transit movements, availability of alternative routes, crashes, short length of the segments, etc. speed on individual arterial segments can fluctuate from heavily congested to no congestion and back in a few minutes. The segment speed and traffic region congestion estimates together may give a better understanding of the actual traffic conditions.
