Method and Apparatus for Conveying Vehicle Driving Information
First Claim
1. A method for conveying vehicle driving information comprising:
- generating, by a server computing device, a hazard index for a plurality of road segments, wherein the hazard index indicates a level of driving safety, the generating comprising;
determining a hazard value for each of the plurality of road segments based on (i) weather conditions data associated with the road segments, (ii) road conditions data associated with the road segments, and (iii) physical attributes of the road segments; and
assigning the hazard value to the corresponding road segment;
receiving, by the server computing device, location data associated with a remote device; and
transmitting, to the remote device, hazard information associated with one or more of the plurality of road segments based on the location data and the hazard index.

Abstract
Described are methods and apparatuses, including computer program products, for conveying vehicle driving information. A hazard index indicating a level of driving safety is generated for a plurality of road segments. The generating comprises determining a hazard value for each of the plurality of road segments based on weather conditions data associated with the road segments, road conditions data associated with the road segments, and physical attributes of the road segments, and assigning the hazard value to the associated road segment. Location data associated with a remote device is received. Hazard information associated with one or more of the plurality of road segments and based on the location data and the hazard index is transmitted.
