Data Access

Welcome to the Mobility Analytics Sandbox Data Access resource page! This page provides free access to datasets in the Mobility Analytics Sandbox. By providing access to these curated datasets, we hope to speed up research efforts and advance insights into transportation planning and design. These data are available to the general public, commercial vendors, transportation agencies, researchers, media, and other interested groups.

The Analytics Sandbox Data Services environment includes many different datasets that can be used for transportation analysis.  Some of the datasets are listed below. Some of the datasets stored include real-time data and historical data for incident analysis. If there is a dataset that you think would be a good candidate for inclusion, please contact us at DataSupport@511mobility.org

Some of these datasets require users to sign up to gain access. Only users that are qualified to gain access can procure these datasets.  For example, HERE data is only available to qualified NYSDOT employees and contractors.
