According to the company, the product collates data from a variety of sources to generate real-time traffic incident and congestion information.
The live traffic information is gathered locally from anonymous TomTom-connected GPS devices, anonymous Tracker tracking device feedback and incident reporting by Traffic Net.
Danny Grobben, GM of Tele Atlas Africa, says Real-Time Traffic is a major step forward in traffic information offering what it believes to be the best coverage and the most up-to-date information available from the most reliable sources.
The product uses include dynamic navigation, trip planning and Internet display. Tele Atlas says it can also be integrated with its digital maps, and adds that its traffic feed is updated every 60 seconds.
