Import Statement

from openbb_core.provider.standard_models. import (
AreaAndRoadRuggednessScalesData,
AreaAndRoadRuggednessScalesQueryParams,
)

Parameters

• standard
• usda

vintage: str | None
Default: 2020

Description

Census-tract vintage to retrieve, selecting the source file. Each vintage is a separate census-tract lookup carrying the Area Ruggedness Scale (ARS) and Road Ruggedness Scale (RRS) classifications and their terrain statistics. Valid vintages are:
2020, 2010

state: str | None
Default: WV
State to retrieve, as a two-letter postal abbreviation. The census-tract lookup carries tens of thousands of rows, so the state is the primary scope filter. If None, defaults to West Virginia.
