An estimated time of arrival is established using the route information data records. A personalized correction value based on the road elements, maneuvers, and a driver profile is determined. A personalized time of arrival is calculated based on the estimated time of arrival value and the personalized correction value. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A method for estimation of travel time of a previously untraveled route, comprising: identifying a plurality of trips traveled by a driver including a plurality of maneuvers executed by the driver during the plurality of trips; calculating at least one maneuver time based on the plurality of trips; performing a training mode for a driver profile based on the at least one maneuver time; and calculating a travel time for the previously untraveled route for the driver based on the driver profile trained in the training mode. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, wherein each of the plurality of maneuvers includes a movement executed on a roadway. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, wherein each of the plurality of maneuvers is defined according to a sequence of road elements such that each of the plurality of maneuvers is a transition from a first road element to a second road element. ### Claim 4 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, wherein each of the plurality of maneuvers includes an action. ### Claim 5 (depends on 4) The method of claim 4, wherein the action transitions the driver from a first road element to a second road element. ### Claim 6 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, wherein the at least one maneuver time reflects an experience level of the driver. ### Claim 7 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, further comprising: identifying a maneuver type in the plurality of maneuvers executed by the driver during the plurality of trips; calculating maneuver times for the identified maneuver type; and aggregating the maneuver times for the identified maneuver type. ### Claim 8 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, further comprising: defining a maneuver vector including a value for each of the plurality of maneuvers executed by the driver during the plurality of trips, wherein the driver profile includes the maneuver vector. ### Claim 9 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, further comprising: defining a maneuver vector including a value for different types of maneuvers from the plurality of maneuvers executed by the driver during the plurality of trips, wherein the driver profile includes the maneuver vector. ### Claim 10 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, wherein each of the plurality of maneuvers is defined by characteristics of movements. ### Claim 11 An apparatus for estimation of travel time of a previously untraveled route according to experience level, the 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: identify a plurality of trips traveled by a driver including a plurality of maneuvers executed by one or more drivers during the plurality of trips; calculate at least one maneuver time based on traversals in the plurality of trips; perform a training mode for a driver profile based on the at least one maneuver time; and calculate a travel time for the previously untraveled route based on the driver profile trained in the training mode. ### Claim 12 (depends on 11) The apparatus of claim 11, wherein each of the plurality of maneuvers includes a movement executed on a roadway. ### Claim 13 (depends on 12) The apparatus of claim 12, wherein each of the plurality of maneuvers is defined according to a sequence of road elements such that each of the plurality of maneuvers is a transition from a first road element to a second road element. ### Claim 14 (depends on 11) The apparatus of claim 11, wherein each of the plurality of maneuvers includes an action. ### Claim 15 (depends on 14) The apparatus of claim 14, wherein the action transitions the driver from a first road element to a second road element. ### Claim 16 (depends on 11) The apparatus of claim 11, wherein the at least one maneuver time reflects an experience level of the driver. ### Claim 17 (depends on 11) The apparatus of claim 11, the at least one memory and the computer program code configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus to at least: identify a maneuver type in the plurality of maneuvers executed by the driver during the plurality of trips; calculate maneuver times for the identified maneuver type; and aggregate the maneuver times for the identified maneuver type. ### Claim 18 (depends on 11) The apparatus of claim 11, the at least one memory and the computer program code configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus to at least: defining a maneuver vector including a value for each of the plurality of maneuvers executed during the plurality of trips, wherein the driver profile includes the maneuver vector. ### Claim 19 A non-transitory computer readable medium including instructions that when executed are operable to perform a method comprising: identifying a plurality of trips traveled by a driver including a plurality of maneuvers executed by the driver during the plurality of trips; calculating at least one maneuver time based on traversals in the plurality of trips; performing a training mode for a driver profile based on the at least one maneuver time; and calculating a travel time for a previously untraveled route for the driver based on the driver profile trained in the training mode. ### Claim 20 (depends on 19) The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 19, wherein each of the plurality of maneuvers is defined according to a sequence of road elements such that each of the plurality of maneuvers is a transition from a first road element to a second road element.
