Abstract
Disclosed herein are systems and methods for determining an expansion factor for estimating vehicle traffic. One example method comprises operating at least one processor to: receive telematics data originating from a plurality of telematics devices installed in a plurality of vehicles, map data and census data related to an area within which the vehicles operate; determine, using the telematics data and the map data, an initial estimated vehicle traffic volume for a road segment along which the vehicles operate based on an amount of the vehicles that operate therealong; generate a total estimated vehicle traffic volume for each of the road segments by inputting into a machine learning model the initial estimated vehicle traffic volume and the census data; and determine the expansion factor for the road segments based at least in part on a ratio of the initial estimated vehicle traffic volume to the total estimated vehicle traffic volume.
