Traffic data services in Canada

Canadian traffic-data projects can require a scope that is clear for English- and French-language stakeholders. Terminology, classification and delivery conventions should be confirmed with the project team before observations begin.

Local terminology and scope

Common terminology includes Traffic Count and Turning Movement Count. Agree the terminology, language of deliverables, locations, movements, classes and time periods at project setup. Use a controlled data dictionary when more than one language is required.

Survey applications

  • intersection and turning-movement studies
  • transportation planning
  • pedestrian and cyclist observation
  • traffic video analysis

Methodology and quality

Quality checks should confirm that bilingual labels, tables and movement definitions remain consistent with the approved scope.

Frequently asked questions

Can outputs be prepared for bilingual project teams?
