1. A method comprising:
- receiving speed data for a link;
calculating, by a processor, a quantity of speed clusters from the speed data;
calculating, by the processor, at least a first speed profile for a first speed cluster and a second speed profile for a second speed cluster; and
identifying, by the processor, lane level traffic estimates for a plurality of lanes of the link based on the quantity of speed clusters and at least the first speed profile and the second speed profile.

Abstract
A method and system include identification of road segments with multi-modal traffic patterns. A server receives speed data for a link. The server calculates a quantity of speed clusters from the speed data. The server calculates speed profiles for the quantity of speed clusters. The server identifies one or more modes of transportation for the link based on the quantity of the speed clusters and the speed profiles for the quantity of speed clusters.

13. An apparatus comprising:
-
at least one processor; and at least one memory including computer program code for one or more programs;
the at least one memory and the computer program code configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus to at least perform;receive traffic data for a plurality of links; calculate a quantity of speed clusters for each link of the plurality of links from the traffic data; identify a number and type of lanes for each of the plurality of links from the quantity of speed clusters; and generate a link strand from contiguous links of the plurality of links that have a same number and same type of lanes. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16)

17. A navigation device comprising:
-
positional circuitry, the positional circuitry configured to identify a starting location; an input device, the input device configured to select a destination; a transmitter, the transmitter configured to transmit to a mapping service, a request for a route from the starting location to the destination; and a receiver, the receiver configured to receive the route from the mapping service, wherein the route includes a link with a multi-modal traffic pattern including one or more speed clusters;
wherein each of the one or more speed clusters correspond to one or more lanes of the link;
wherein the route is generated using a selected lane of the one or more lanes for the link. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
