Abstract
An approach is provided for classifying a traffic jam from probe data. The approach involves receiving the probe data that is map-matched to a roadway on which the traffic jam is detected. The probe data is collected from one or more vehicles traveling the roadway. The approach also involves determining a jam area of the roadway based on the probe data. The jam area corresponds to one or more segments of the roadway affected by the traffic jam. The approach further involves determining a set of features indicated by the probe data from a portion of the probe data collected from the jam area. The approach further involves classifying, using a machine learning classifier, the traffic jam as either a recurring traffic jam or a non-recurring traffic jam based on the set of features.
