Aggregation of traffic impact metrics is provided. Each of a plurality of holidays is associated with a holiday category of a plurality of holiday categories. The plurality of holiday categories includes a first holiday category and a second holiday category. A plurality of points of interest along a link of a transportation network is identified. At least one of the plurality of points of interest is associated with the first holiday category and at least one of the plurality of points of interest with the second holiday category. A mean category impact for each of the plurality of holiday categories is determined. An aggregated traffic impact metric is determined based, at least in part, on the mean category impact of each of the plurality of holiday categories.

Aggregation of traffic impact metrics

A method for auto-calibrating parameters in traffic prediction. The method includes determining a first subnet of traffic links that is associated with a plurality of traffic links in a traffic network. The method includes determining a second subnet of traffic links that is associated with the first subnet of traffic links and has a first traffic predicting accuracy value. The method includes generating a set of optimized traffic predicting parameters associated with the second subnet of traffic links, and applying the set of optimized traffic parameters onto a third subnet of traffic links. The method includes determining the set of optimized traffic predicting parameters used to calculate prediction results having a second traffic predicting accuracy value, and applying said set of optimized traffic predicting parameters to subnets associated with the traffic network. Further, the first traffic predicting accuracy value is lower than the second traffic predicting accuracy value.
