More Accurate Calculation of Arrival Time

More accurate calculation of arrival time
Abstract: By including traffic information (TMC), e.g. in the event of a traffic queue ahead, an alternative route is calculated and displayed.
The expected time of arrival is calculated more accurately by including the average vehicle speed corresponding to the type of road.
For this purpose, the average speed of the last 7 minutes is stored corresponding to the type of road (motorway, major trunk road, district road). Based on the selected route, the computer calculates the share of different types of road and the determined average speed so it can calculate the arrival time more accurately.
