WZDx Example Feeds

This directory contains example GeoJSON documents from WZDx data feeds. The examples cover a range of common scenarios. There are examples for the Work Zone Feed and Device Feed contained within the respective subdirectories.

Work Zone Feed Examples

The following WZDx Work Zone Feed examples represent a variety of common scenarios when creating road events. Most of the examples are modeled after work zone scenarios used in a previous WZDx discussion. Optional fields are not included in all examples but represented at least once across the various examples. Each scenario is provided as a single GeoJSON file which may contain multiple work zones documenting differences in representing road events at varying levels of complexity. All example scenarios are provided for the LineString geometry type as well as one MultiPoint geometry type for scenario 1.

Below is a summary of each of the example WZDx feeds and detailed differences for each of the road events:

Scenario 1 - Simple Work Zone

Scenario 1 (LineString Example or MultiPoint Example) is based on the same numbered annotated work zones in Discussion Topic 131 with a single lane closed on a multi-lane facility.

• First work zone is single direction, single event, with no lane-level information (ID: 71234).
• Second work zone is single direction, single event, with detailed lane information (ID: WDM-58493-NB).
• Third work zone is a single direction, three sequential events, with detailed lane information. This work zone demonstrates the use of the related_road_events property. The RelatedRoadEventTypes values of first-in-sequence and next-in-sequence are used to indiciate the order of the road events. (IDs: 65773-1, 65773-2, 65773-3).

Scenario 2 - Lane Shift (simple scenario)

The Scenario 2 Example is based on the same numbered annotated work zones in Discussion Topic 131 which keeps all lanes open but shifts them resulting in both shoulders being closed on a multi-lane facility.

• Single work zone with lane shift in the detailed lane information showing use of verified location and start time. ("id": 7733).

Scenario 3 - Shoulder Closure (bidirectional work zone)

The Scenario 3 Example is based on the same numbered annotated work zones in Discussion Topic 131 which closes the shoulder in a single direction on an undivided roadway.

• Single work zone represented by two road events (IDs: 121388-EB, 121388-WB), one in direction of shoulder closure and second in opposite direction.
• Demonstrates the use of restrictions for the event as well as individual lanes.
• Demonstrates the use of related_road_events to show the road events in each direction are related to each other but not in sequence using the RelatedRoadEventTypes value of related-work-zone

Scenario 4 - Road Closure with Detour on Arterial

The Scenario 4 Example is based on the same numbered annotated work zones in Discussion Topic 131 which has an associated detour for a road closure. The example is slightly modified for use on a multi-lane facility.

• Single work zone in one direction represented by a single road event (ID: 67890), with a detour.
• Showing use of related_road_events to connect the detour road events (IDs: 67890-detour1, 67890-detour2, 67890-detour3) to the work zone using the RelatedRoadEventTypes values of related-work-zone and related-detour
• Also uses related_road_events to represent the sequence of the three detour road events.
• Shows the use of both the work zone and detour road event objects in the same feed.

Scenario 5 - Recurring Work Zone

The Scenario 5 Example) is based on the same numbered annotated work zones in Discussion Topic 131 assuming that it is just a single lane closure but is recurring over multiple days.

• Simple work zone but with a recurring component.
• Five road events: an active (day 1, ID: PLK01012016-Day1) event and four additional events (IDs: PLK01012016-Day2, PLK01012016-Day3, PLK01012016-Day4, PLK01012016-Day5) for later dates with a pending status.
• The active work zone event demonstrates value of verified location and time.
• The related_road_events property is used to show all road events are related and the order of events using the RelatedRoadEventTypes values of first-occurrence and next-occurrence

Local Access Only (bidirectional work zone)

The local access only example shows a basic work zone that keeps all lanes open but places restrictions to only local traffic.

• Single work zone on a bidirectional roadwith with impact to both directions, represented by two road events (IDs: WZ389-NB, WZ389-SB), one for each direction.
• Uses local-access-only RestrictionType.
• One road event shows basic details (not lane-level), while the opposite direction road event shows detailed lane information. The detailed lane information also includes a bike lane for reference.

Device Feed Examples

The following example WZDx Device Feeds are provided:

1. Arrow Board "ok" Example: A simple feed that includes a single arrow board with an ok status and several optional properties provided.
2. Camera "error" Example: A simple feed that includes a single camera with an error status, no image data, associated status_messages, and a few optional properties provided.
