Automatic continuous counting points - raw data

Traffic volume data from automatic permanent counting stations on federal trunk roads are made available to BASt by the Federal Motorway GmbH and the federal states in a uniform data format. These raw data available to BASt are hourly data and have not been checked for plausibility by BASt, nor have data preparations taken place. Thus, the files may contain, among other things, data gaps, incomplete measuring cross-sections, incorrect directions and implausible lane arrangements. In addition, time shifts, incorrect vehicle type distinctions, format errors and incorrect numerical values may be present. The hourly data are available as raw data in the BASt stock band format for traffic volume data as ANSI dataset. The general information about the respective automatic continuous counters is provided as a CSV file in the monthly zip files together with the monthly hourly files. Both the hourly data and the metadata only reflect the current status at the time of provision. In general, no guarantee can be given by BASt for completeness and quality at this stage of data collection. There is a complete disclaimer. BASt assumes no liability for damages resulting from the use of the information provided. A monthly update is planned. The results based on the plausible and finally prepared hourly data as well as the associated hourly data from 2003 onwards are also made available by BASt: <a href="https://mobilithek.info/offers/573280210227470336">Automatic counting points on motorways and federal roads</a> <br> <b>Dataset description:</b> <a href="https://www.bast.de/EN/Publikationen/Daten/Verkehrstechnik/Downloads/DZ-Beschreibung.pdf?__blob=publicationFile">BASt-Bestandsbandformat für Verkehrsmengedaten (PDF)</a>
