Appl. No.:

17/645385

Inventors:

- Eindhoven, NL

Kyle JACKSON - Chicago IL, US

International Classification:

G01C 21/34
G01C 21/30
G01C 21/36
G08G 1/052
G08G 1/01

Abstract:

A method, apparatus, and computer program product are provided for evaluating traffic conditions across a plurality of lanes to determine whether it is advantageous to travel in the restricted travel lane. Methods may include: receiving a plurality of probe data points, each probe data point received from a probe apparatus of a plurality of probe apparatuses; map-matching the probe data points of the plurality of probe apparatuses to a road segment of a road network; determining a distance of each probe data point from a centerline of the road segment; determining a range of distances for the probe data points from the centerline of the road segment; dividing the range of distances into a predefined number of spatial bins; identifying a speed associated with each spatial bin; and determining a restricted travel lane benefit based on an analysis of the speeds of each spatial bin.

International Classification:

G08G 1/01

Abstract:

A method, apparatus, and computer program product are provided for detecting changes in road traffic conditions based on vehicle probe data. Methods may include: receiving a plurality of probe data points; map-matching probe data points of the plurality of probe apparatuses to road segments of a candidate road of a road networks; for a plurality of time epochs, cluster probe speeds map-matched to road segments of the candidate road according to a clustering algorithm; establishing centroid speeds corresponding to clusters of probe speeds; spatially grouping said road segments according to probe-to-cluster mapping; and providing a road traffic condition change message in response to a difference between centroid speeds along the candidate road exceeding a predefined threshold, where the road traffic condition change message includes at least information about said road segment groups that correspond to said clusters.

International Classification:

G08G 1/01

Abstract:

Precision traffic flow indication may involve receiving device data over a period of time representing a plurality traffic flow readings associated with a road involving a plurality of subsections. Calculating traffic flows and determining road subsections having similar traffic flows may also be involved. Also, indicating a different traffic flow level for a first subsection and a second subsection of road may be involved.

International Classification:

G08G 1/01
G08G 1/052

Abstract:

An approach is provided for state classification for a travel segment with multi-modal speed profiles. A traffic processing platform processes and/or facilitates a processing of probe data associated with at least one travel segment to determine that probe data indicates a plurality of speed profiles. The plurality of speed profiles represent one or more observed clusters of speed states. The traffic processing platform also determine that the at least one travel segment exhibits a multi-modality with respect to travel speed based, at least in part, on the plurality of speed profiles. The traffic processing platform then determines at least one likely sequence of speed states for traversing the at least one travel segment based, at least in part, on the one or more observed clusters of speed states and state transition probability information, wherein the state transition probability information represents one or more probabilities for transitioning among the plurality of speed states and causes, at least in part, a classification of at least one hidden state of the at least one travel segment based, at least in part, on the at least one likely sequence of speed states.
