**The "Streets" feature has been renamed to Edge Counts. This change aligns with the new Hexagon Counts feature available in Metroview.**
The Edge Counts feature allows you to explore activity at the street block or trail segment level. It’s designed to help you understand where trips occur, how patterns change over time, and how people move through specific parts of your network.
Loading edges on the map
Zoom in on the map to load street or trail edges for a specific area. Once edges are visible, click on an individual edge to view usage patterns and trip purpose for that segment.
Zoom in on the map to load street or trail edges for the area you’d like to explore. Once edges are visible, click on an individual edge to view usage patterns for that segment.
After selecting an edge, the panel will show information about trips and people using that segment. You can filter by trip purpose and switch between bicycle and pedestrian activity. Use the date picker to choose a time period or apply a custom date range to narrow your analysis.
Click over to the People tab to view demographic and activity information associated with the selected edge.
To expand the analysis, you can select multiple edges at once. These edges may be adjacent, such as a continuous stretch of road or trail, or separated, such as multiple entry points to a destination.
Understand Trips and People across multiple edges
When multiple edges are selected, both the Trips and People panels display two values: Total and Any.
Any represents activities or people who crossed at least one of the selected edges during the selected time frame.
Total represents activities or people who crossed all of the selected edges during the selected time frame.
For example, if you select all edges across a bridge, Any includes everyone who used at least one of those edges, while Total includes only those who traversed every selected edge within the selected time frame. Direction of travel does not affect these counts.
Trips vs People
The Trips tab focuses on activity counts. For a single edge, an activity may generate multiple trips if it crosses the same edge more than once.
The People tab focuses on unique individuals. For a single edge, it shows the total number of people who used that edge. When multiple edges are selected, Any and Total reflect how many people used at least one or all selected edges, respectively, within the selected time frame.
