High-resolution traffic flow data in Glasgow

<p><strong>Description of the dataset</strong></p> <p>This dataset offers a long-term traffic flow data at an intra-city scale with high spatio-temporal granularity. The dataset covers the Glasgow City Council area for four consecutive years spanning the COVID-19 pandemic, from October 2019 to September 2023, providing comprehensive temporal and spatial coverage.&nbsp;</p> <p>The code used to produce the indicators is available at: <a href="https://github.com/YueLi-0816/TrafficFlowData">https://github.com/YueLi-0816/TrafficFlowData</a>.</p> <p>This work is funded by the China Scholarship Council (CSC) from the Ministry of Education of P.R. China, the ESRC&rsquo;s ongoing support for the Urban Big Data Centre (UBDC), and the Royal Society International Exchange Scheme.</p> <p><strong>Contents</strong></p> <p>Sensor status metadata - status.csv</p> <table> <tbody> <tr> <td> <p><span>Column name</span></p> </td> <td><span>Description</span></td> </tr> <tr> <td> <p><span>id</span></p> </td> <td><span>Unique ID for each sensor, e.g., GA0601_T.</span></td> </tr> <tr> <td> <p><span>latitude</span></p> </td> <td><span>The Latitude in decimal degrees of WGS84 coordinates, e.g., 55.86238129.</span></td> </tr> <tr> <td> <p><span>longitude</span></p> </td> <td><span>The Longitude in decimal degrees of WGS84 coordinates, e.g., -4.26570708.</span></td> </tr> <tr> <td> <p><span>step 1</span></p> </td> <td><span>The status of sensors at the current step is 1 if retained and 0 if removed.</span></td> </tr> <tr> <td> <p><span>step 2</span></p> </td> <td><span>The status of sensors at the current step is 1 if retained and 0 if removed.</span></td> </tr> <tr> <td> <p><span>step 3</span></p> </td> <td><span>The status of sensors at the current step is 1 if retained and 0 if removed.</span></td> </tr> <tr> <td> <p><span>step 4</span></p> </td> <td><span>The status of sensors at the current step is 1 if retained and 0 if removed.</span></td> </tr> <tr> <td> <p><span>step 5.1</span></p> </td> <td><span>The status of sensors at the current step is 1 if retained and 0 if removed.</span></td> </tr> <tr> <td> <p><span>step 5.2</span></p> </td> <td><span>The status of sensors at the current step is 1 if retained and 0 if removed.</span></td> </tr> </tbody> </table> <p>Sensor location metadata - locations.csv</p> <table> <tbody> <tr> <td>Column name</td> <td>Description</td> </tr> <tr> <td>id</td> <td>Unique ID for each sensor, e.g., GA0601_T.</td> </tr> <tr> <td>latitude</td> <td>The Latitude in decimal degrees of WGS84 coordinates, e.g., 55.86238129.</td> </tr> <tr> <td>longitude</td> <td>The Longitude in decimal degrees of WGS84 coordinates, e.g., -4.26570708.</td> </tr> </tbody> </table> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Traffic flows metadata</p> <table> <tbody> <tr> <td>File name</td> <td>Description</td> </tr> <tr> <td>[sensor_id].csv</td> <td>Traffic flows.
