StreetLight Data says AADT provides on-demand traffic volumes for over 4.5 million miles of Canadian and US roadways.

The StreetLight Insight platform will allow users to obtain accurate AADT counts for nearly every Canadian and US road in minutes, the company adds.

Laura Schewel, CEO of StreetLight Data, says: “With our AADT Canada release we can now bring complete traffic data sets to planners covering both Canada’s largest cities and extensive rural areas.”

The company says AADT can be rendered for bi-directional traffic or can focus on traffic moving in one direction on a roadway, including ramps, freeway-to-freeway connectors or local roads. Each analysis also includes a prediction interval for the metrics provided.
