Macroscopic:
Fluid-dynamic models treat traffic as a compressible
fluid (Navier-Stokes).
Mesoscopic:
Gas-kinetic models treat traffic as a many-particle
system, deriving macroscopic equations from
microscopic driver behaviour.

Horizontally: hour-of-year.
Vertically: detector ID.
Dark horizontal lines: detector failure during a certain time period.
Dark vertical lines: failure of several neighbouring detectors.
Long vertical lines: archival failure at the central database.
(?) For single inductive loop detectors, total vehicle counts are the most reliable.
