Australia Traffic Data
Nationwide Vehicle & Foot Traffic DataGain access to highly granular road and pedestrian traffic datasets across Australia to support site selection, retail analytics, infrastructure planning, transport analysis and spatial decision-making.
GapMaps has partnered with Veitch Lister Consulting (VLC) to provide nationwide vehicle and foot traffic data in analytics-ready geospatial datasets, helping organisations understand how people and vehicles move through places.
Understand How
People and Vehicles
Move Through Places
Road Traffic Data and Foot Traffic Data provide comprehensive Australia-wide coverage of:
- • AADT (Annual Average Daily Traffic) Vehicle traffic volumes across the road network
- • Foot traffic volumes at street level
- • Hourly and daily vehicle traffic patterns
- • Weekday vs weekend activity analysis
- • Commercial vehicle traffic insights

How Our Traffic Data is Built?
Road Traffic Data is generated by VLC using anonymised mobile device data combined with a high-quality national road network and advanced spatial processing methodologies.GPS events are grouped into trips and calibrated against observed transport agency traffic counts collected from thousands of locations across Australia to provide reliable outputs.
Foot Traffic Data uses anonymised location observations and advanced geospatial modelling techniques to estimate street-level walking activity and pedestrian movement patterns.The datasets are continuously validated and refined to support operational and strategic planning use cases.
