Abstract
Techniques, systems, and articles of manufacture for leveraging information for use in a traffic prediction scenario. A method includes extracting transportation-related information pertaining to a geographic region from multiple user-driven information systems, processing said transportation-related information by merging the transportation-related information across the multiple user-driven information systems and one or more transportation-related databases, and determining a supply and demand estimation for one or more aspects of transportation in the geographic region based on said processing of said transportation-related information.
