Based on that, we used weather data collected from sensors installed around carefully chosen specific city spots for predicting the day-ahead traffic volume. To select the most appropriate locations to install sensors that either measure traffic loads or collect weather data, it is crucial to define their objective in advance. Our efforts focus on the question 'How can one exploit sensor data that are not personalized and create meaningful conclusions for the general public?' Deployment of smart city infrastructure requires a deep understanding of the traffic problem. Our approach, besides examining traffic predictability based on weather data, also aims to clarifying differences among locations. For example, if a sensor captures information every h(e.g. at 07:10, 08:10, 09:10 etc.), we computed and assigned the average value for each weather metric and the traffic load for that specific day period. ./cache/cord-025545-s6t9a7z8.txt ./txt/cord-025545-s6t9a7z8.txt
