Abstract

Provided herein is a method of estimating a travel time along a route. Methods may include: obtaining a route between an origin and a destination, where the route includes a plurality of road links; identifying a subset of road links of the plurality of road links; providing an identification of each road link of the subset of road links to a service provider; receiving an indication of a pace of travel along each of the subset of road links; computing an estimated travel time along the route based on the pace of travel along each of the subset of road links; and providing an estimated time-of-arrival at the destination based on an identified departure time and the estimated travel time along the route. Methods may include computing an estimated travel time error along the route, and providing the estimated travel time error as a potential error of the estimated time-of-arrival.
