INWEVA: 2018 Working Day Traffic Intensities on the HWN Road Network

Traffic intensities for the year 2018, specifically for working days on the HWN road network. The data is provided by the Dutch Ministry of the Interior and Kingdom Relations and includes a breakdown by different time periods and vehicle categories. Multiple file formats are available, including CSV and geospatial formats like GeoPackage and KML.

Use Cases

• Modeling peak-hour traffic congestion based on the breakdown by time periods.
• Analyzing vehicle fleet composition and its impact on road wear based on the vehicle category breakdown.
• Forecasting infrastructure maintenance needs based on traffic intensity patterns on working days.
• Creating visualizations of traffic flow across the road network using the provided geospatial data formats.

Strengths

• Data is focused on a specific year (2018) and day type (working days), providing a clear temporal scope.
• Available in multiple interoperable formats, including CSV for tabular analysis and GeoPackage/KML for geospatial work.
• Published under a permissive CC0 1.0 license, allowing for unrestricted reuse.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment for large-scale modeling.
• Last update date is unknown; freshness unverified.
