• For metrics requests with the agps source, osm_vintage is now a required argument for the field parameter.
  • Fixed a bug where the API incorrectly labeled day_type in the metrics CSV. Now the day_type in the metrics will align with the day you request, where 1 is Sunday and 7 is Saturday.

AGPS data model update

The agps data source now uses an upgraded model to calculate volume for all data beginning in 2019 and onward. This new model delivers:

  • Enhanced performance, particularly on low-volume roadways
  • Improved differentiation between weekday and weekend traffic trends
  • More stable historical comparisons

This model will be used going forward for all new data releases.

New OSM Vintage parameter

Queries using the agps data source must now specify the OpenStreetMap (OSM) vintage. The selected vintage determines the road network geometry used to calculate metrics. You can specify the osm_vintage parameter for the Segment Count, Geometry, and Metrics endpoints. The following vintages are available:

  • 202302: OSM snapshot from February 2023, use for dates through December 2024
  • 202501: OSM snapshot from January 2025, use for dates from January 2025 onward

For more information, see Defining Geometry.

New geometry fields

You can now define geographies with the following new fields:

  • taz_id: 2020 Traffic Analysis Zone (TAZ) ID
  • places_2020: 2020 Census FIPS Place ID

For more information, see Defining Geometry.

You can now get trip purpose metrics for the All Vehicles CVD+ travel mode. To get this metric, do the following in your Create and run an analysis request:

  1. Set analysis_type to Zone_Activity_Analysis, OD_Analysis, OD_MF_Analysis, or OD_Preset_Geography.
  2. Set travel_mode_type to All_Vehicles_CVD_Plus.
  3. Enable the traveler_attributes parameter.

For more information in the StreetLight Help Center, see Traveler Attributes.

You can now analyze zone sets made up of GeoJSON LineStrings with the Network Performance analysis type. Previously, you could only analyze zone sets made up of OSM IDs.

You can now analyze Truck volume for 2023 with the Network Performance analysis type. Configure the following parameters for the Create and run an analysis endpoint:

"analysis_type": "Network_Performance",
"travel_mode_type": "Truck",
"output_type": "volume"

Monthly and annual metrics for 2019 and 2020, as well as June through July 2024 are now available for the AGPS data source. To get these metrics, set the source parameter to AGPS when making a request to the Metrics endpoint.

  • AADT analyses now use the oz_sets to define a zone set; the az_sets parameter has been removed.
  • AADT analyses must now set travel_mode_type to All_Vehicles_AGPS
  • Data months are now available in the Network Performance analysis type for Canadian accounts.
