METHODS AND DEVICES FOR PROCESSING TRAFFIC DATA
First Claim
1. A method for processing traffic data, applied in a terminal, the method comprising:
- acquiring a current location of a traveling vehicle;
determining whether the current location is an identified traffic impediment location;
when the current location is not an identified traffic impediment location;
monitoring an amount of variation of an impediment parameter when the vehicle is in the current location, anddetermining whether the amount of variation of the impediment parameter exceeds a corresponding predetermined range; and
when the amount of variation of the impediment parameter exceeds the predetermined range, sending the current location and the amount of variation of the impediment parameter to a traffic data server.

Abstract
The present disclosure relates to methods and devices for processing traffic data. A method may include acquiring a current location of a traveling vehicle. A method may further include, when the current location is not an identified traffic impediment location, monitoring an amount of variation of an impediment parameter when the vehicle is in the current location. A method may further include, when the amount of variation of the impediment parameter exceeds a predetermined range, sending the current location and the amount of variation of the impediment parameter to a traffic data server. Through a method, drivers may in real time learn accurate information about traffic impediments ahead, and may preemptively respond by lowering traveling speeds or bypassing the location.

1. A method for processing traffic data, applied in a terminal, the method comprising:
-
acquiring a current location of a traveling vehicle; determining whether the current location is an identified traffic impediment location; when the current location is not an identified traffic impediment location; monitoring an amount of variation of an impediment parameter when the vehicle is in the current location, and determining whether the amount of variation of the impediment parameter exceeds a corresponding predetermined range; and when the amount of variation of the impediment parameter exceeds the predetermined range, sending the current location and the amount of variation of the impediment parameter to a traffic data server. - View Dependent Claims (2, 3, 4, 5, 6)

7. A method for processing traffic data, applied in a server, the method comprising:
-
receiving, from a first vehicle, a current location of the first vehicle and an amount of variation of an impediment parameter of the first vehicle; determining whether the current location corresponds to a location previously stored in a traffic-impediment-location list in the server; and when the current location does not correspond to a location previously stored in the traffic-impediment-location list; identifying the current location as a traffic impediment location, storing the amount of variation of the impediment parameter locally in the server, and storing the current location in the traffic-impediment-location list. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11, 12)

13. A terminal, comprising:
-
a processor; and a memory for storing instructions executable by the processor; wherein the processor is configured to; acquire a current location of a traveling vehicle; determine whether the current location is an identified traffic impediment location; when the current location is not an identified traffic impediment location; monitor an amount of variation of an impediment parameter when the vehicle is in the current location, and determine whether the amount of variation of the impediment parameter exceeds a corresponding predetermined range; and when the amount of variation of the impediment parameter exceeds the predetermined range, send the current location and the amount of variation of the impediment parameter to a traffic data server. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15)
