Traffic information calculation device, traffic information calculation program and traffic information calculation method

TLDR
In this article, the traffic information such as a traffic jam degree by considering waiting for a traffic light to change to obtain an accurate travel time when obtaining travel time information by use of information of a probe vehicle.
Abstract
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To accurately decide traffic information such as a traffic jam degree by considering waiting for a traffic light to change to obtain an accurate travel time when obtaining travel time information by use of information of a probe vehicle. SOLUTION: Position/speed data of the vehicle traveling in a road section are collected (S1), a traffic light waiting time and a frequency of the waiting for the traffic light to change in the road section of the vehicle are calculated based on a collected speed V of the vehicle (S6), and the traffic light waiting time is subtracted from the travel time of the road section (S8) to calculate the net travel time of the road section, and the traffic information such as the traffic jam degree of the road section is decided based on the net travel time (S10).
