Our data provider
We get the data from TomTom's Traffic API, which works as follows: it is a comparison between the usual speed on a stretch of road (GPS data) vs. the current speed on this stretch. It also takes road type into account:
- Motorway, freeway or other major road,
- Major road, less important than a motorway,
- Other major road,
- Secondary road,
- Local connecting road,
- Local road of high importance,
- Local road.
There is a 15 minutes refresh timer.
