Abstract

A method, apparatus, and non-transitory computer readable storage medium for traffic report certainty estimation. The approach may include determining at least one data input to a traffic model for generating a traffic report estimation for a road segment. The approach may also involve determining at least one input characteristic value associated with the at least one data input based, at least in part, on probe data collected from one or more sensors of at least one probe device. The approach may further involve determining a coefficient of certainty value from a certainty table based on the at least one input characteristic value, wherein the certainty table respectively maps one or more value intervals of the at least one input characteristic value to a pre-assigned coefficient of certainty value, and providing the coefficient of certainty value as an output associated with the traffic report.
