Route Monitoring Study Results

The results page provides a real-time and historical view of traffic performance along your defined route. Once your route is active, it includes:

• A summary of your route configuration and management options
• Real-time traffic metrics and a color-coded map of current conditions
• Historical travel time, delay, and speed data over a selected date range
• Options to export your data

Results can be viewed across six tabs at the top of the screen:

• The Overview and Map tabs give you a summary of your route configuration and current traffic conditions.
• The Table and Chart tabs let you explore historical data over a selected date range.
• The Labels tab allows you to assign names and metadata to each route, making it easier to organize and manage your projects.
• The Settings tab provides route-level configuration options.
• From the Access tab, you can also grant other users access to view the study.

You can also analyze performance across multiple routes at once using Route Monitoring Insight and view live conditions across your entire network from the Traffic Map.

Overview

The Overview tab displays your route's name, active status, total length in metres, API key, and any assigned labels. A map preview shows the route with the origin in green and destination in red.

Managing Your Route

Three management options are available in the top-right corner of the Overview tab:

• Edit: Modify the route configuration
• Share: Generate a shareable link to give external stakeholders read-only access to your route results. When creating the link, you set an expiry date to control how long access remains active. Once the link expires, it can no longer be used to view the results.
• Delete: Permanently remove the route from your workspace.

Map

The Map tab shows real-time traffic conditions along your route. The route is color-coded from green (free-flowing) to red (heavily congested). The view refreshes automatically.

Route-Level Metrics

The left panel displays the following metrics for the full route. Most are self-explanatory, but the following are worth clarifying:

Flow Coverage: The percentage of the route covered by live traffic data. Sections without data are excluded from calculations. A value of 100% means the entire route has coverage.

Delay (Free Flow Based): The difference between the current travel time and the free flow travel time, also shown as a percentage of free flow time. For example, 16:03 min | 92% means the route currently takes 92% longer than under free-flow conditions.

Unusual Delay: The difference between the current travel time and the typical travel time for this time of day, shown as a percentage of typical travel time. This highlights congestion that goes beyond what is normally expected at that hour.

Avg. Confidence: The average data quality score across the route (0–100). A value of 100 means full confidence that the data reflects actual road conditions. Lower values indicate some degree of uncertainty, which may occur on local roads with limited probe coverage.

Speed & Confidence Chart

Below the metrics, a bar chart shows the relative speed (as a percentage of free flow speed) for each segment along the route. Green bars indicate free-flowing conditions; yellow and orange indicate slowdowns; red indicates heavy congestion.

Segment Details

Clicking a segment on the map or on the Speed & Confidence chart opens a popup showing that segment's current speed, current speed as a percentage of free flow, typical speed, confidence score, and length in metres.

Table

The Table tab shows a historical log of route monitoring snapshots. Set a From and To date range and click Submit to load records. Records are listed in reverse chronological order.

Each row includes the record timestamp, whether the route was passable, travel time, delay time, typical travel time, typical travel time coverage, flow coverage, and average confidence for that snapshot.

Clicking any row opens a Details panel showing the route map and Speed & Confidence chart for that specific point in time, giving you a visual snapshot of conditions across the route at that moment.

Chart

The Chart tab presents time series visualizations of traffic performance over a selected date range. Use the From and To date pickers and choose a Granularity (5 min, 10 min, 15 min, 30 min, or 1 hour), then click Submit to load the charts.

Time Series - Travel Time, Delay Time & Typical Travel Time

This chart plots three series over the selected time range:

• Travel Time: The actual recorded travel time at each interval
• Typical Travel Time: The expected travel time for that time of day based on historical patterns. This value is derived from speed profiles built from up to 2 years of historical data, reflecting normal traffic conditions for a given road, time of day, and day of week. It is not influenced by data collected during your current monitoring period, making it a stable baseline against which live travel times and unusual delay are measured.
• In rare cases where insufficient historical data exists to build a speed profile, such as low-traffic residential roads with limited probe coverage, fallback estimates from the map are used. This has minimal impact on most analyses.
• Delay Time: The delay above free-flow conditions at each interval

Peaks in the Travel Time line correspond to morning and afternoon rush hours. Hover over any data point to see the exact timestamp, travel time, typical travel time, and delay value at that moment. Click CSV Report to export this data.

Speed Series - Average Speed & Typical Speed

This chart plots two series over the selected time range:

• Average Speed: The actual average speed across the route at each interval
• Typical Speed: The expected average speed for that time of day based on historical data

Speed dips during peak hours appear as valleys in the chart. Hover over any point to see the exact timestamp, average speed, and typical speed. Click CSV Report to export this data.

Settings

The Setting tab controls how and when your route is monitored. The following fields are available for all subscription types:

• Link Name: The name assigned to this route monitoring link
• Update Interval (min): How frequently the route data refreshes, in minutes

The following fields and options are only visible when your route is configured under the On Demand subscription type:

• From Date / To Date: The active monitoring date range for this route
• Schedule grid: Select which hours of the day and days of the week monitoring is active. Use the quick-select buttons to apply AM Peak Hours, PM Peak Hours, or All Hours across the schedule at once.

Advanced Schedule

The Advanced Schedule section allows you to define custom monitoring intervals for specific time windows. Each entry can be edited or deleted individually. This section is only available under the On Demand subscription type.

Route Monitoring Insight

The Route Monitoring Insight tab allows you to run a cross-route analysis by comparing travel time, speed, or delay across multiple routes simultaneously over a defined period.

To generate results:

1. Select one or more routes from the Routes dropdown
2. Add one or more Date Ranges
3. Add one or more Time Sets
4. Configure your Options: Group By, Metric, Granularity, and Split By
5. Click Run to load the chart

The chart output is driven by how you configure your options:

• Group By: Controls the chart structure. Selecting None produces a time series with each Route × Date Range × Time Set combination plotted as a continuous line. Selecting By Date Range produces a grouped bar chart organized by time set.
• Metric: Determines whether the chart displays travel time, speed, or delay.
• Granularity: Controls the time interval at which data points are plotted.
• Split By: Further breaks down results within the chart.

The combination of these options makes Route Monitoring Insight flexible enough to support a wide range of comparisons, from tracking a single route across a full day to comparing peak-period performance across multiple corridors and date ranges.

Example: Time series view (Group By: None)

Example: Grouped bar chart view (Group By: By Date Range)

Viewing Live Route Monitoring Data on the Traffic Map

Your active route can also be accessed in real time from the Traffic Map, accessible from the left navigation menu. The map displays all active routes color-coded by current traffic conditions, along with a summary bar at the bottom showing the number of routes, average delay, average delay percentage, and number of congested routes.

Clicking on a route opens a side panel with the route name, auto-refresh status, route length, and the same real-time metrics and Speed & Confidence chart available in the Map tab.
