The primary goal of this acquisition is to obtain a subscription to allow for access to and the ability to download daily deliveries of crowd-sourced motor fuel price data. Data should have significant geographic coverage, including prices from gas stations in all 50 states and major cities. The following specific data elements are required:

• A Station ID or other unique station identifier for the station from which prices were collected


• A daily average price (including weekends and holidays) for each station and fuel type based on all reported prices for that day


• Fuel type, including regular, midgrade, and premium gasoline as well as diesel and ethanol blends E15 and E85


• State, zip code, street address, and latitude/longitude information for the station


• Number of valid reports that the daily average price calculated for each fuel type and station is based on


• An outlier removal process to detect and remove reported prices of questionable validity
