Behind this dataset

Same schema. As many rows as you need.

These 130 rows came out of a blueprint — 15 columns with generation rules behind each one. Open it in Data Factory to retune a column, add your own, wire in foreign keys, and run it at the size you actually need.

Rules it was built with
  • Each row represents a unique urban route and time period
  • CO₂ emissions calculated based on vehicle type and passenger count
  • Renewable energy usage logged for electric or hybrid routes
  • Routes flagged if exceeding emissions thresholds
  • Passenger volume must be non-negative and realistic per route
  • Include timestamps for weekday/weekend differentiation
