Abstract

A computer-implemented method includes obtaining road sensor data reflecting speeds of traffic on road segments, transforming the road sensor data using vehicle probe data for the road segments reflecting vehicle speeds, and producing speed estimates for the road segments using the transformed road sensor data. The method can further include determining speeds for road segments between road sensors by smoothing data from sensors near the road segments.
