Can we do better?

Detection of jam tails for a safety warning in the navigation unit
• Over 35% of drivers have admitted to experiencing
an accident caused by sudden or unexpected traffic
holdups
• Jam ahead warning messages in traffic output can be
used to create these safety messages with great
accuracy

Connectivity options
Option Pro Con
User’s phone • Two-way data path, low • Still roaming costs to user (in
(Bluetooth or latency Europe)
Wifi), • Does not require much • Often difficult for user to set up
user’s data adaptation of hardware, Bluetooth
subscription Bluetooth and USB often • Not supported on all phones
present.
• Globally scalable
Built-in modem • Two-way data path, low • OEM/HW supplier needs to
(GPRS or 3G), latency integrate modem in hardware
with dedicated • Same options for SIM as design
data External modem – • Roaming charges in EUR but
subscription supplied by user, OEM, decreasing also driven by EC
(SIM) or HW supplier upcoming lawDelivery Channels
Connectivity options - continued
Option Pro Con
RDS • Standard, many device in • Limited bandwidth and not tailored
(analog radio the market to user, so traffic info very limited
broadcast) • Low radio license cost • Higher latency in receiving info
(broadcast over FM • Difficult to achieve national
frequencies) coverage; international impossible
• One to many broadcast with • No per-user billing possible
lower server load and costs • One-way, no return channel
DAB(+) • High bandwidth channel • Still limited European coverage
(digital radio • One to many broadcast with • compatibility
broadcast) lower server load and costs; • No personalisation (hybrid
HD Radio load-independent connectivity needed)
• One-way, no return channel
Continued on next slide…
• Identified weaknesses must be
eliminatedDelivery Protocols
Three message encoding options: TMC Alert-C, TPEG-TEC and TomTom LIVE
TMC AlertC codes TPEG-XXX messages TomTom LIVE services
• Limited to Alert-C • TPEG-TEC, TFP, • Proprietary forma
event codes for WEA, FPI, PKI, SC .. • Bandwidth-efficient
traffic jams encoding and protocol
• Choice of location
• Uses TMC and OpenLR
• Limited to TMC table referencing,
location referencing • LIVE services bundle
including TMC and
(traffic, weather, fuel
OpenLR prices, speedcam)
• Limited to Traffic

18The TomTom Traffic Manifesto
http://www.tomtom.com/trafficmanifesto
If 10% of the road drivers use TomTom Traffic
guided navigation in conurbations there is a
1. Individual journey time reduction for
informed users by up to 15%
2. A collective journey time reduction for ALL
by up to 5%
19How to estimate the journey time reduction
claims in the TomTom Manifesto?
Use of traffic modelling and simulation in a simplified road network
Assume a share of equipped navigation users (e.g. traffic guided drivers)
Assume high acceptance rate for detour choices when approaching a traffic jam!
Results from simulation below for medium and high traffic flow
