Minimum Required Sample Size To Estimate Traffic Metrics
Overview
We are often asked about the reliability of the penetration rate or sample size of datasets from different data sources – Are they statistically sound to estimate various traffic metrics for the purpose of traffic planning, operations and transportation engineering? This document is intended to provide guidelines on determining the minimum sample size that is required to estimate statistically reliable traffic metrics.
