Comment (by leeroy):

 The `Consensus Weight` is the measured bandwidth from bandwidth
 authorities. If you're going to add a key based on measured status it
 might also be worth considering a last_measured based on the last time the
 relay had a weight line in consensus without `Unmeasured`.

 The graphs you are interested in wouldn't be as easy to produce based on a
 `measured` key because then you need to check every hour to see if the
 status for `measured` changed for every relay. It's also not exactly
 deterministic when a measurement is taken (based on ticket review). You're
 asking Onionoo to do what you could just as easily do with CollecTor and
 basic system tools.

 If you're interested in graphing bandwidth data over time you might be
 better served by the Onionoo weights document which tracks `Consensus
 Weight`.
