Snow and Ice Clearing Route Status for Edmonton Roads

Edmonton's snow and ice clearing operations are tracked in this dataset, which provides a tabular view of the city's public map data. The data is sourced from the City of Edmonton's ArcGIS REST API and hosted on data.edmonton.ca. It was last updated on April 3, 2026.

Use Cases

• Analyzing clearing priority distribution across districts using District and Route Clearing Priority columns.
• Tracking operational progress and delays via Segment Status, Route Status, and Elapsed Hours columns.
• Calculating total cleared distance by aggregating Length in Kilometres and pass_km columns.
• Mapping specific road segments and routes using geometry_line, Road From, Road On, and Road To columns.

Strengths

• Includes detailed geospatial geometry for mapping routes via the geometry_line column.
• Provides multiple status and performance metrics like Segment Status, Service Level Achieved, and Elapsed Hours.
• Offers data in multiple accessible formats including CSV, JSON, XML, and RDF.

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• The map and dataset are only updated during declared 'snow events'; minor snowfall clearing may not be reflected.
• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
