“TomTom’s Traffic Stats database makes tailor-made reports available within one day and is unique in that it gathers the underlying information mainly from actual car movements.”
Maarten van Gool, Managing Director of TomTom Licensing explains: “TomTom’s Traffic Stats database makes tailor-made reports available within one day and is unique in that it gathers the underlying information mainly from actual car movements.”
TomTom’s database was first created in 2006 and now includes more than 3 trillion actual driven measurements; more than 3.5 billion new measurements are added each day and this rate is growing. Traffic information is available for the entire road network in Europe and North America. Data is available at different degrees of granularity, down to every 10 metres (11 yards) of road, depending on local road geometry.
The Traffic Stats portal makes it possible to analyse actual driven historical travel times and speeds on any road or route over any calendar period and time of day.
