Montreal Road Network Section Management Log Since 2017

A log records update operations for the Geobase road network sections. It contains section identifiers, operation dates and types, and version numbers for changes made after October 25, 2017, starting with version 618. The dataset does not include geospatial geometry for the affected road edges.

Use Cases

• Analyze the frequency of operation types over time to understand road network maintenance patterns.
• Track version numbers and section identifiers to audit the update history of specific road segments.
• Filter records by operation date to study changes implemented after a specific policy or infrastructure initiative.

Strengths

• Provides a structured log of all section management operations since a specific date (October 25, 2017).
• Records discrete update events with identifiers, dates, types, and version numbers for traceability.
• Is part of a related suite of Geobase datasets covering the full Montreal road network.

Limitations

• Lacks the geospatial geometry of the updated road sections, limiting spatial analysis.
• Contains only operations from version 618 onward, providing an incomplete historical record.
• Data is provided for informational purposes with explicit warnings against use for design, work, or asset location.
