Great to hear that Michael; either way, SmartView is a well used resource!

Hi Lenny and Jan,
I’ve been researching where the difference between smartview and the counter comes from for last couple weeks and we got to the end. There was some slight issue in the API processing on ecocounter side which has been fixed, but SmartView caches the data so it kept using the pre-fix data and it wasn’t much per day but obviously cumulatively it added up. I’ve recached all the data and seems to be matching what EcoCounter has so hopefully it is all good.

Let me know if anything similar happens again please, I discovered by luck just browsing the comments here 🙂

Hmm, the Smartview counter does count 18,787 trips in January 2019, but there is a discrepancy of 70,000 trips for the entire year numbers. If the January blackout alone were to account for this, there would need to be around 90,000 trips in January 2019 (the recorded ones and the missing 70,000). This would mean that during January 2019, the daily average would have been closer to 3,000. I would think that wasn’t the case, and instead, the missing numbers are spread throughout the year.

One way or another, it seems to me that the Smartview data is significantly under-reporting the numbers (given that we can see that the Ecocounter itself is very accurate). I wonder if this is a widespread problem, or just a

There was a period of time last January when one of the detectors at the bridge wasn’t recording, although oddly I think the counter was still counting them.
