IMPROVING RELIABILITY OF TRAVEL TIME ESTIMATION

摘要

A method and system for increasing accuracy in estimating average time taken to travel through a chosen mad segment is provided. The method includes determination of time taken by one or more vehicles to travel through the road segments. Further, correlated road segments for which time taken to travel through the correlated road segments is con elated with the time taken to travel through the chosen road segment, ate identified. A data repository stores a list of the one or more correlated road segments. Among the correlated road segments, one or more preferred road segments that increases the accuracy m determining the average time taken To travel through the chosen road segment, is determined by at least one processor. Further, the processor estimates the avepme time taken to travel through the chosen mad segment using, data corresponding to time taken to travel through, the preferred road segments and the chosen road segment.
