Steps

  1. Query the Socrata dataset 'Work Zone Data Feed Registry' (resource id 69qe-yiui) at https://data.transportation.gov/resource/69qe-yiui.json
  2. Filter/select records for the state or agency of interest; each row lists a feed's producer, feed URL, and WZDx spec version
  3. Pass a Socrata app token via the X-App-Token header to avoid throttling on repeated queries
  4. Fetch the feed URL returned for a chosen producer to retrieve the live WZDx GeoJSON feed
  5. Confirm the feed's declared spec version (v2.0-v4.2) before parsing fields, since schemas differ by version
