Contents & fields

The dataset contains three folders: Raw Data, Processed Data, and Outputs. Raw data includes ANPR-matched vehicle type lists (e.g., IRR ANPR matched to DFT vehicle type list.csv), processed data includes lookup tables and samples, and outputs are Excel summaries by site and time. Fields include pseudo registration number (UniqueID), vehicle description, Eurostandard class, VehicleClass, EU class, modified gross vehicle weight (GVM_Mod), engine capacity (EngineCC_mod), passenger seats (PassSeats), kerb weight (KerbWt), etc.

  • UniqueID——anonymised unique vehicle identifier
  • VehicleClass——vehicle class (e.g., car, lorry)
  • EU class——EU emission standard class
  • GVM_Mod——modified gross vehicle weight
  • EngineCC_mod——modified engine capacity
  • PassSeats——number of passenger seats
  • KerbWt——kerb weight
  • Eurostandard——Euro emission standard
  • Journey date/time——journey date and time
  • Site——monitoring site

Research uses

Can be used for urban traffic emission modelling, vehicle type distribution analysis, relationship between traffic flow and emissions, and application of ANPR data in environmental policy evaluation.

Why this is hard to get on your own

When obtaining ANPR data, one often needs to process large raw records and match vehicle emission standards, with unclear field descriptions and data processing steps.
