    Abstract: System, method and computer program products are provided for detecting an environmental zone, generating a time schedule of an environmental zone in a region and providing route navigation instructions. The method may include obtaining at least one observation associated with the environmental zone in a region. The method may further include determining a confidence value associated with the at least one observation in the region and detecting the environmental zone in the region based on the confidence value associated with the at least one observation. The detection of the environmental zone comprises determining either one of a presence or an absence of the environmental zone in the region. Further, the detection of the environmental zone may be used to generate a time schedule indicating presence or absence of the environmental zone in the region for different time intervals.

    Abstract: A system, a method, and a computer program product may be provided for generating traffic congestion estimation data of one or more lanes in a region. A system may include a memory configured to store computer program code and a processor configured to execute the computer program code to obtain image data associated with the region. The processor may be configured to determine a count of one or more first movable objects in one or lanes, based on image data, calculate a lane object static capacity of the one or more lanes, based on one or more map free flow or speed limit attributes associated with the one or more lanes and generate the traffic congestion estimation data based on count of first movable objects in the one or more lanes, the moving speed of movable objects crossing multiple image frames, the lane object static capacity of lanes.

    Abstract: A method for improved traffic congestion estimation is provided using signal phase and timing data from traffic signals at intersections and probe data from vehicles traversing said intersections. An example method may include: identifying each of a plurality of paths through an intersection; identifying signal phase and timing data for each traffic light associated with each path through the intersection; receiving probe data for vehicles approaching or traversing the intersection; estimating a number of vehicles failing to traverse the intersection along a path through the intersection; estimating a congestion status of the path through the intersection based on the number of vehicles failing to traverse the intersection; and causing the congestion status to be provided to permit updating of a map to reflect the congestion status.

    Abstract: An approach for traffic incident verification involves receiving a traffic message channel (TMC) message indicating a traffic incident. The TMC message indicates an extent of the traffic incident in a road graph using TMC location code(s)/offset(s). The approach also involves matching the TMC location code(s)/offset(s) to a first set of map road link(s) and offset(s) of a geographic database, determining sensor data collected from vehicle(s) travelling within the road graph. The sensor data indicates the extent as location point(s) of topology segment(s) (TSs) and TS offset(s), matching the location point(s) of the TS(s) and TS offset(s) to a second set of map road link(s) and offset(s) of the geographic database, determining an intersection set between the first and second sets, and initiating a confirmation of the traffic incident reported in the TMC message based on the sensor data of the location point(s) of the TSs in the intersection set.

    Abstract: A system, a method, and a computer program product may be provided for generating navigation instructions. The system may include a memory configured to store computer executable instructions and a processor configured to execute the computer executable instructions to retrieve sensor data associated with at least one vehicle travelling along a route having at least one intersection and map data associated with the route from a map database. The sensor data indicates intersection information relating to the at least one intersection. The intersection information comprises an intersection category and an intersection type. The map data comprises traffic-related information for a plurality of intersection connected links. The processor may be further configured to determine a turn cost correction factor for the at least one intersection, based on the sensor data and the map data. The processor may be further configured to store the turn cost correction factor within the map database.

    Abstract: An approach is provided for providing traffic based location referencing with offsets for road incident reporting. The approach, for example, involves determining a road incident that crosses at least one boundary between a first road segment and a second road segment. The approach also involves creating an aggregated road segment comprising a start location of the road incident in the first road segment to the boundary and from the boundary to an end location of the road incident in the second road segment or an end road segment. The approach further involves providing a report of the road incident that is referenced to a positive offset from the start location of the road incident to a beginning of the first road segment and/or a negative offset from the end location of the road incident to an end of the second road segment or the end road segment.
