Abstract

A road congestion detection method realized by a computer includes obtaining K images taken by L cameras corresponding to a first road at a same target time point, the first road including M road sections, each road section corresponding to at least one camera, M, L, K each being a positive integer, L being greater than or equal to M, performing target detection on each image to obtain area ratio information, the area ratio information representing a ratio of an area of vehicles on a lane of a target road section to an area of the lane of the target road section, the target road section being a road section corresponding to the image in the M road sections, and determining a first congestion detection result of the first road at the target time point in accordance with K pieces of area ratio information corresponding to the M road sections.
