Data

The Energy Zones Mapping Tool currently includes the 408 Geographic Information System (GIS) data layers listed below. Over time, data layers will be added, updated, and removed. The GIS layers are compiled from a variety of sources for the purpose of screening-level analysis, and each has a limit to the scale, currency, and accuracy of the data.

Click any column header to sort on that column. Click the sign to view a short description of the data layer. Click on the metadata link in the table below to access metadata for each layer, and to learn more about the data quality and source. We make no warranty or representation, express or implied, as to the use, accuracy, or interpretation of the data accessible at this site.

		Roads, with Average Annual Daily Vehicle Traffic	Transportation	State Departments of Transportation
		Abstract: This layer is a compilation of state-level vehicle road traffic data from Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Ohio, Pennsylvania, New York, Maryland, Washington DC, Virginia, and West Virginia. Since the database content varies among the source data, only the average annual daily traffic data was kept from each. The source date also varies as follows: 2021 - Kentucky and Pennsylvania; 2020 - Illinois and Iowa; 2019 - Indiana, New York, Ohio; 2018 - Washington DC, Maryland, Virginia.
