High-resolution multi-source traffic data in New Zealand
摘要
Traffic information is crucial for managing transportation and city planning, but obtaining national-scale data is difficult due to privacy concerns. Consequently, most current traffic datasets have limitations in terms of time and location coverage, leading to a lack of comprehensive public access to national traffic data. To address this issue, a multi-source highway traffic dataset has been created, featuring 2042 sensors in New Zealand over a 9-year period with 15-minute intervals and accompanying metadata. The dataset includes data of both light-duty and heavy-duty vehicles, as well as weather information like temperature and precipitation. This dataset has diverse potential research applications such as traffic flow prediction and congestion management.
