Bicycle counting — Counters — Syndicat des Mobilités de Touraine

Data set listing and locating the counters of the Syndicat des Mobilités de Touraine bike counting sites installed since 2016. This dataset is loaded daily on the API of our partner Eco Meter, provider of Zelt or Easy-Zelt loop counting technology _ (electromagnetic loops to distinguish bikes from other users of an infrastructure)._ Meters are preferably located on axes where flows are concentrated. The position of Tours between the Loire and the Cher therefore prompted, in the first instance, to equip the bridges. A metering site may be equipped with one or two meters depending on the configuration of the site. Meters are permanent or semi-permanent. In the second case, they are positioned over a given period, usually 12 months, before being moved. Meters can capture bicycles and/or pedestrians, but only bicycle data are available here. **A NOTE:** The only rectified data is that of the semi-permanent meter No. 2 of the Arccole bridge, currently positioned on the bike path, to take into account bikes using the sidewalk. The recovery, determined as a result of field studies, is 15 %. **Temporary information:** The meter installed at **Point O** has anomalies. Until it is repaired, figures are not reported **You will find here:** \- Meter identifier \- Name of meter \- ID of the counting site \- Name of the counting site \- Date of installation of the counting site \-Link to photo of the counting site \- Geographical coordinates of the counting site The number of meters evolves as cycling facilities progress. Some meters can be disabled for work or occasionally fail.
