# Traffic Data

## FSP - Data from the Freeway Service Patrol Evaluation Project

This description is not yet completed

The data includes:

- Traffic measures at induction loops
  - per-vehicle speed and lengths

### Data Descriptions

#### per-vehicle speed and lengths

The data is given as a tar file named fsp_speed_and_lengths.tar (~40MB). Within this tar-file you will find a folder which contains compressed (gzip) data files. Each data file represents a day for one direction (north/south). The following days are given:

- 16.02.93
- 17.02.93
- 18.02.93
- 19.02.93
- 22.02.93
- 24.02.93

The files are tab-delimited with the following fields:

- Detector position (in meters)
- Detector lane
- Time (in ?)
- vehicle speed (probably in m/s)
- vehicle length (in m)
