Abstract
Processing link information related to traffic and travel information, in which link information is received including a link identification value associated with a particular link, a link identifier component enabling a determination of a link system to be employed in identifying the particular link referenced by the received traffic information, and a location type information component enabling a determination of a link location type of the particular link. Based upon the received information, a link system to be used to identify the particular link is determined. In addition, the link location type and the link identification are determined.
Claims17
A method for identifying at least one link, comprising:
- receiving link information including:
- a link identification value associated with a particular link,
- a link identifier component enabling a determination of a link system to be employed in identifying the particular link referenced by the received traffic information, and
- a location type information component enabling a determination of a link location type of the particular link;
- determining, based upon the link identifier component, a link system to be used to identify the particular link;
- identifying, based upon the determined link system and the link identification value, the particular link from the received link information;
- determining, based upon the location type information, the link location type of the particular link;
- and
- associating, based on identification of the particular link, the determined link location type with the particular link referenced by the link identification value.
An apparatus for identifying information for at least one link, the apparatus comprising:
- a receiving device configured to receive link information including:
- a link identification value associated with a particular link,
- a link identifier component enabling a determination of a link system to be employed in identifying the particular link referenced by the received traffic information, and
- a location type information component enabling a determination of a link location type of the particular link;
- and
- a processing device configured to:
- determine, based upon the link identifier component, a link system to be used to identify the particular link,
- identify, based upon the determined link system and the link identification value, the particular link from the received link information;
- determine, based upon the location type information, the link location type of the particular link;
- and
- associate, based on identification of the particular link, the determined link location type with the particular link referenced by the link identification value.
