Schema prj_volume Overview and Breakdown
There are three categories of tables in the schema:
Reference/Raw Tables
Table Name
Description
Notes
arteries
geometry information for arterycodes
source indicates the source of coordinate information (geocoding, flow, centreline, null)
centreline
Toronto centreline
centreline_dual
dual of the centreline table with the addition of directions
used for mapping 2-way volume
centreline_groups
grouping of centrelines sharing the same volume
merging segments on the same street with no intersecting collector and above
centreline_groups_geom
geometry of grouped centrelines and additional information such as road class and street name
a few circular geometries simplified to half circles
centreline_groups_l2
level 2 grouping of the centreline groups
merging segments on the same street with no intersecting minor arterial and above (excl. expressways since they are not at grade crossing)
centreline_intersections
intersections in Toronto
cnt_det_clean
ATR counts in flow
clean version of traffic.cnt_det, with bad records deleted or flagged
det_clean
TMC counts in flow
clean version of traffic.det, with bad records deleted or flagged
new_arterydata
new/modified arterycodes
monthly_factors
seasonal factors (weights) for each month
average factors are identified by centreline_id = dir_bin = 0
monthly_factors_group
seasonal factors w.r.t. centreline_groups
average factors are identified by group_number = dir_bin = 0
Intermediate Tables
Table Name
Description
Notes
corr_dir
major corridor definition
tmc_turns
a table that links vehicle movement with centrelines
movement text corresponds to the columns in det/det_clean
actery_tcl
a table that links arterycodes (both ATR and TMC) to centrelines
clusters
cluster results
cluster_profiles
the representative profiles of each cluster
cluster_atr_volumes
volumes used for clustering
vol_weight is null for incomplete day counts indicated by the field complete_day
clusters_group
cluster results w.r.t. centreline groups
Volume Tables
Table Name
Description
Notes
centreline_volumes
ultimate volumes table
one entry for one location, datetime, type, and class
atr_daily_summary
daily atr volumes
from 2009-2016, aggregated complete-day data from centreline_volumes
tmc_daily_summary
daily tmc volumes
from 2009-2016, aggregated complete-day data from centreline_volumes
aadt
Annual Average Daily Traffic (weekdays only)
confidence: 1 - counts available; 2-4 - spatially extrapolated (see link )
