TRAVEL TIME DATA PROCESSING APPARATUS, TRAVEL TIME DATA PROCESSING METHOD AND PROGRAM
First Claim
1. A travel time data processing apparatus configured to process data regarding a travel time that is a time period required for traveling on a road, the travel time data processing apparatus comprising:
- a road network data storage configured to store road network data that includes link data representing roads;
a probe information storage configured to store probe information obtained from each apparatus traveling on a road;
a travel time data calculator configured to use the probe information and calculate data on the travel time with regard to each road corresponding to each piece of the link data; and
a travel time data processor configured to select another piece of link data that satisfies a predetermined condition relative to one piece of link data and refer to travel time data of a road corresponding to the another piece of link data, so as to process data on the travel time of the one piece of link data.

Abstract
A travel time data processor extracts a link that is present in the neighborhood of a target link, as a reference link. The travel time data processor selects an identical time zone of the reference link that is identical with the time zone of the target link in which the number of sample data is less than a reference number, and searches for another time zone having similar statistical data to that of the selected time zone. The travel time data processor adds the number of sample data in a time zone of the target link corresponding to the searched another time zone of the reference link to the number of sample data in the time zone of the target link that is equal to or less than the reference number, and generates statistical data from the summed-up sample data.

4. A travel time data processing method of calculating a travel time of a road based on information sent from an information terminal, the travel time data processing method comprising:
-
causing a computer to obtain probe information from each apparatus traveling on a road; causing the computer to store the probe information into a probe information storage; causing the computer to use the probe information and calculate a travel time that is a time period required for traveling, with regard to each road corresponding to each piece of link data that is included in road network data stored in a road network data storage; and causing the computer to select another piece of link data that satisfies a predetermined condition relative to one piece of link data and refer to travel time data of a road corresponding to the another piece of link data, so as to process data on the travel time of the one piece of link data.

5. A program configured to calculate a travel time of a road based on information sent from an information terminal, the program being executed by a computer, the program causing the computer to implement the functions of:
-
obtaining probe information from each apparatus traveling on a road; storing the probe information into a probe information storage; using the probe information and calculating a travel time that is a time period required for traveling, with regard to each road corresponding to each piece of link data that is included in road network data stored in a road network data storage; and selecting another piece of link data that satisfies a predetermined condition relative to one piece of link data and referring to travel time data of a road corresponding to the another piece of link data, so as to process data on the travel time of the one piece of link data.
