Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Computer program products, methods, systems, apparatus, and computing entities are provided for forecasting travel delays corresponding to streets, street segments, geographic areas, geofenced areas, and/or user-specified criteria. And from the forecasted travel delays, speed and travel times that take into account such travel delays can be determined.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A method for determining an estimated travel time, the method comprising: receiving, via one or more processors, operational data comprising vehicle telematics data, the vehicle telematics data (a) being indicative of one or more vehicle dynamics for a vehicle during one or more time periods; the vehicle telematics data, (b) collected by a telematics device affixed to the vehicle, and (c) downloaded by a remote computing device; determining, via the…
