PREDICTING IMPACT OF A TRAFFIC INCIDENT ON A ROAD NETWORK
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for predicting impact of a traffic incident on a road network, the method comprising:
- receiving traffic data from at least one data provider; and
using a processor to;
calculate a plurality of traffic-flow velocities from the traffic data, each of the traffic-flow velocities being associated with a data-provider and a data-capture time,using a classification scheme to identify an impact class associated with the traffic-flow velocities.

11. A system for predicting impact of a traffic incident in a road network, the system comprising:
-
a plurality of data-capture devices disposed along the road network, the data-capture devices configured to capture the traffic data at a data-capture time; a processor configured to; calculate a plurality of traffic-flow velocities from the traffic data, each of the traffic-flow velocities being associated with a data-capture time and one of the traffic-data capture devices, use a classification scheme to identify an impact class associated with the traffic-flow velocities. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)

19. A non-transitory computer-readable medium having stored thereon instructions for predicting impact of a traffic incident in a road network which when executed by a processor causes the processor to perform a method comprising:
-
receiving traffic data from a plurality of data-capture devices; and using a processor to; calculate a plurality of traffic-flow velocities from the traffic data, each of the traffic-flow velocities being associated with a data-capture device and a data-capture time time, use a classification scheme to identify an impact class associated with the traffic-flow velocities. - View Dependent Claims (20)
