Overview
This glossary defines the attributes found in the Assigned.shp shapefile, which contains the base year highway network with traffic assignment outputs by time period. This is the primary output network from the WF-TDM v10 model showing loaded volumes, speeds, delays, and other metrics. The file is produced by 04_SummarizeLoadedNetworks.s in the 5_AssignHwy model step.
Model Time Periods
The WF-TDM uses 5 time periods for assignment and analysis:
| AM |
Morning Peak |
6:00–9:00 AM |
|
| MD |
Midday |
9:00 AM–3:00 PM |
Off-peak |
| PM |
Evening Peak |
3:00–6:00 PM |
|
| EV |
Evening |
6:00 PM–6 AM |
Evening off-peak |
| DY |
Daily |
Full 24 hours |
Aggregated full-day metric |
Note: DY_VOL = AM_VOL + MD_VOL + PM_VOL + EV_VOL. Daily speeds and times are volume-weighted averages of the four period values.

Note: Separator fields (e.g., byGenPurp_) are string-type placeholder fields used as visual dividers in the attribute table; their values are descriptive labels, not numeric data. Actual field ordering and numbering should be confirmed with geopandas or a GIS tool against the live shapefile.
Key Measurement Notes
Calculating Network-Wide Metrics
To compute model-wide or corridor-level performance: - Total VMT: Sum of [PERIOD]_VMT across relevant links - Total VHT: Sum of [PERIOD]_VHT across relevant links - Total Delay: Sum of [PERIOD]_DELAY across relevant links - Average Speed: Total VMT ÷ Total VHT (NOT simple average of link speeds) - Average Delay: Total Delay ÷ Total VHT (in minutes per hour)
Time Period Relationships
- Daily metrics (
DY_*) are computed as sums of the four time-period assignments: DY_VOL = AM_VOL + MD_VOL + PM_VOL + EV_VOL
- Daily speeds and times are volume-weighted averages of the four period speeds/times
- When analyzing a full-day corridor profile, use
DY_* fields
- When analyzing peak demand or congestion, use the period-specific AM/MD/PM/EV fields
