GTFS Realtime (also known as GTFS-rt) is an extension to GTFS, in which public transport agencies share real-time vehicle locations, arrival time predictions, and alerts such as detours and cancellations via Protocol Buffers web server. [1] Realtime location data is created continuously by an agency from automatic vehicle location (AVL) systems ...
Screenshot of Google Maps with traffic option enabled. In 2007, Google began offering traffic data as a colored overlay on top of roads and motorways to represent the speed of vehicles on particular roads. Crowdsourcing is used to obtain the GPS-determined locations of a large number of cellphone users, from which live traffic maps are produced.
Traffic estimation and prediction systems (TrEPS) have the potential to improve traffic conditions and reduce travel delays by facilitating better utilization of available capacity. These systems exploit currently available and emerging computer, communication, and control technologies to monitor, manage, and control the transportation system.

Used to determine the distance headway between a vehicle and its predecessor. One of the simplest model in this category is the Pipe's rule, the basic assumption of this model is "A good rule for following another vehicle at a safe distance is to allow yourself at least the length of a car between your vehicle and the vehicle ahead for every ten miles per hour (16.1 km/h) of speed at which you ...
The APIs provide functionality like analytics, machine learning as a service (the Prediction API) or access to user data (when permission to read the data is given). Another important example is an embedded Google map on a website, which can be achieved using the Static Maps API, [1] Places API [2] or Google Earth API. [3]
INRIX, Inc. is a privately held company headquartered in Kirkland, Washington, US.It provides location-based data and software-as-a-service analytics—such as real-time and historical traffic conditions, road safety, and parking availability—to automakers, businesses, cities, and road authorities worldwide, as well as turn-by-turn navigation applications such as Google Waze.

A traffic congestion map is a graphical, realtime or near-realtime representation of traffic flow for some particular area. [1] Data is typically collected via anonymous GPS datapoints and loop sensors embedded in the roadways, then processed by computer at a central facility and distributed as a map view to users.
