Guide to Realtime Traffic API

The Realtime Traffic API allows you to enable 1-minute refresh rate for Floating Car Data (FCD). 

When purchased, this premium option offers several additional benefits to the standard 5-minute refresh option: traffic operators can now detect and respond to disruptions, incidents or congestion much faster. 

As a consequence, 1-minute updates enhance traffic management: real-time monitoring is more efficient, predictions are more accurate and delays are minimized. 

However, note that: the GUI, the Forecast function and current KPIs remain unchanged, updating every 5 minutes and using the standard forecast settings (at time 0,+10,+20, etc.).
