HERE launches Advanced Real-Time Traffic service

In an industry first, the HERE Advanced Real-Time Traffic service provides accurate speeds on arterial lanes with congestion at intersections, as well as the different speeds on roads with high occupancy vehicle lanes.

This new service (available for Australia, Canada, New Zealand and the US) is an expansion of HERE's standard real-time traffic service that delivers up-to-the-minute information about traffic flow and incidents that can cause delays. It enables the display of traffic conditions on highways, arterials and supports traffic-aware routing for optimal ETA calculations.

The service gives drivers the chance to make informed decisions behind the wheel about the best routes for their journeys, and includes more granular traffic coverage in more than 100 cities worldwide, across all street types, allowing for a better understanding of the overall traffic situation within a city.

Both HERE Real-Time Traffic and HERE Advanced Real-Time Traffic are available in more than 70 countries worldwide, covering over 13 million kilometres of roads in total. The services are based on billions of anonymised GPS data points HERE gathers every day, leveraging over 150 different probe data providers and more than 100 incident sources.
