Using

If my_address_file_geocoded.csv is a file in the current working directory with coordinate columns named lat and lon, then the DeGAUSS command:

docker run --rm -v $PWD:/tmp ghcr.io/degauss-org/aadt:0.2.2 my_address_file_geocoded.csv

will produce my_address_file_geocoded_aadt_0.2.2_400m_buffer.csv with added columns describing the average annual daily traffic within a 400 meter buffer radius of each point:

  • length_moving: total length of interstates, expressways, and freeways (meters)
  • length_stop_go: total length of arterial roads (meters)
  • vehicle_meters_moving: average daily number of vehicles multiplied by the length of interstates, expressways, and freeways (vehicle-meters)
  • vehicle_meters_stop_go: average daily number of vehicles multiplied by the length of arterial roads (vehicle-meters)
  • truck_meters_moving: average daily number of trucks multiplied by the length of interstates, expressways, and freeways (truck-meters)
  • truck_meters_stop_go: average daily number of trucks multiplied by the length of arterial roads (truck-meters)

Optional Argument

The default buffer radius is 400 meters, but can be changed by supplying an optional argument to the degauss command. For example,

docker run --rm -v $PWD:/tmp ghcr.io/degauss-org/aadt:0.2.2 my_address_file_geocoded.csv 800

will produce my_address_file_geocoded_aadt_0.2.2_800m_buffer.csv, and all output will be values within an 800 m buffer.

Geomarker Methods

This container was built using the addAadtData package.

Geomarker Data

  • AADT data was obtained from the U.S. Department of Transportation Federal Highway Administration. For more information, see aadt_shp_to_qs.
  • AADT data is stored by state at s3://geomarker/aadt/aadt_by_state, but is also included in the Docker image.

DeGAUSS Details

For detailed documentation on DeGAUSS, including general usage and installation, please see the DeGAUSS homepage.
