Abstract
An initial geometry including one dimensional representation of a path is accessed. The initial geometry may be based traffic data. An envelope size is identified based on the path. The envelope size may be derived from a width, functional classification, or lane quantity associated with the path. A processor calculates a supplemental geometry based on the envelope size for the path and generates a two dimensional representation of the path based on the initial geometry, the supplemental geometry, and the envelope size.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- accessing an initial geometry including one dimensional representation of a path;
- identifying an envelope size associated with the path;
- calculating using a processor, a supplemental geometry based on the envelope size for the path;
- and
- generating, using the processor, a two dimensional representation of the path based on the initial geometry, the supplemental geometry, and the envelope size.
An apparatus comprising:
- at least one processor;
- and
- at least one memory including computer program code for one or more programs;
- the at least one memory and the computer program code configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus to at least perform:
- deriving an initial geometry including one dimensional representation of a path;
- identifying an envelope size associated with the path;
- calculating a supplemental geometry based on the envelope size for the path, wherein the supplemental geometry includes a first line segment and a second line segment;
- calculating an intersection of the first line segment and the second line segment;
- and
- generating a two dimensional representation of the path based on the intersection of the first line segment and the second line segment.
A method comprising:
- receiving traffic data and location data indicative of a location of a mobile device;
- identifying an upstream path segment and a downstream path segment based on the location data;
- calculating, by a processor, a first supplemental segment based on the upstream path segment and a first envelope size;
- calculating, by the processor, a second supplemental segment based on the downstream path segment and a second envelope size;
- calculating, by the processor, an intersection point for the first supplemental segment and the second supplement segment;
- modifying the first supplemental segment or the second supplemental segment to terminate at the intersection point;
- and
- generating a geometry based on the modified first supplemental segment or second supplemental segment and the traffic data.
