Launched by INRIX Inc, a global provider of traffic information and driver services, the INRIX XD Traffic is said to provide the industry with twice the amount of road coverage than previously available and covers four million miles (6.4m kilometres) of road in 37 countries.
‘In a world measured in miles, INRIX is measuring in minutes,’ said Roger Lanctot, senior analyst, Strategy Analytics. ‘Traffic is the single most important telematics application and INRIX XD Traffic is the first service with the potential to help the industry deliver on the promise of real-time navigation. Without reliable and accurate traffic data, it is impossible to determine the best routes, accurate arrival times, or even vehicle range based on fuel resources.’
The new INRIX XD Traffic is available to drivers to download in the INRIX Traffic app for iPhone and Android.
