Guidebook on Pedestrian and Bicycle Volume Data Collection. National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Report 797.

摘要

The objective of this research was to assess existing, new, and innovative technologies and methods and provide guidance for transportation practitioners on to how to best collect pedestrian and bicycle volume data. The assessment considered, among other factors, feasibility, availability, quality, reliability, cost, and compatibility. The guidance (i.e., Guidebook) includes methods to (a) efficiently mine and manage existing data sources; (b) acquire and use data from new and innovative technologies; and (c) summarize and disseminate pedestrian and bicycle volume data for site-specific, local, and systemwide needs assessments, project development, and safety management. The agency's guidebook has been published as NCHRP Report 797: Guidebook on Pedestrian and Bicycle Volume Data Collection. And the agency's final research report is available as NCHRP Web-Only Document 205: Methods and Technologies for Pedestrian and Bicycle Volume Data Collection Follow-on activity is being considered and is in development.
