Description

This data set is derived from over 30,000 vehicle trajectories on the I-80/94 corridor in Indiana. The data consist of a unique identifier and the times the vehicles were identified as passing through virtual detection zones at mile markers 2.5 and 10.5 in the eastbound and westbound directions. Each record has a flag indicating whether the vehicle was an outlier, defined as a vehicle that exited the route and re-entered, as verified by GPS data. Data from the eastbound and westbound directions are contained in separate Excel files. This curated data set can be used to ground truth travel time estimation and incident detection algorithms.
