Road segments · live Pune deployment

TomTom Move aggregates GPS data from TomTom's ecosystem of connected cars, navigation users, and fleet devices. TraffiCure delivers Google's Roads Management Insights (RMI) data to Indian cities — a different source with different coverage characteristics, purpose-built for public-sector operations.

What TomTom Move does

TomTom sells Move as a data product for city planners and research teams. Data comes as downloadable CSVs segmented by O-D matrix, time window, and road. Strong in European cities and automotive navigation deployments.

Academic research, European urban planning studies, origin-destination analysis for regional transport planning.

Frequently asked

Is TomTom's data better on highways?

In Europe and the US, TomTom's automotive coverage is strong. In India, Google Maps penetration exceeds TomTom's by a wide margin on both highways and urban arterials.

Can I get an O-D matrix from TraffiCure?

Yes — derivable from the segment-level flow data in BigQuery. TraffiCure doesn't package O-D as a separate product, but the underlying data supports it.

Does TomTom work in India?

Yes, but coverage density is the limiting factor. For Indian public-sector work, a probe source tied to Google Maps is typically a better fit.
