Abstract: A processing apparatus for generating route navigation data is provided, to, generate training data based on road network data corresponding to a network of roads in a defined geographical area, and journey data sets, each journey data set comprising data indicative of a journey by a road user through the network of roads and being derived using geolocation transmissions from a communications device of the road user, train a classifier model based on the training data, apply the trained classifier model on road data corresponding to a road in the defined geographical area, for the trained classifier model to predict a direction of traffic flow on the road, and generate the route navigation data indicative of the predicted direction of the traffic flow on the road. A method for generating route navigation data is also provided.

Abstract: A processing apparatus is provided, to, for each candidate point-of-interest of at least one candidate point-of-interest identified for association with a road in a network of roads for determining a name for the road, generate first data indicative of a relationship relating to a distance between the candidate point-of-interest and a road segment of the road, generate second data indicative of a relationship between the road segment and a projection of the candidate point-of-interest in a direction of the road segment, and, if the first and second relationships satisfy a first and second conditions for association respectively, generate data indicative of the candidate point-of-interest being an associated point-of-interest, process data corresponding to the associated point-of-interest to extract name data indicative of a road name associated with the associated point-of-interest, and generate, based on the name data, data indicative of the name for the road.

Abstract: A processing apparatus for traffic management of a network of roads is provided, to, generate, based on journey data sets, first count data indicative of a first count of the road users travelling on an incoming road leading to the intersection node, and second count data indicative of a second count of the road users travelling on an outgoing road of at least two outgoing roads, each outgoing road leading away from the intersection node, generate result data indicative of a result that is determined based on the first count and the second count, if the result satisfies a condition for restriction, generate restriction data indicative of a restriction of traffic from the incoming road to the outgoing road via the intersection node, and generate, based on an angular relationship between the outgoing road and the incoming road, type data indicative of a type of the restriction.

Abstract: A processing apparatus for traffic management of a network of roads is provided, to, process data corresponding to the network of roads to identify an incoming road and an outgoing road intersecting at an intersection node of the network, the incoming road being for incoming traffic leading to the intersection node and the outgoing road being for outgoing traffic leading away from the intersection node, determine, based on the data corresponding to the network, whether there is a bypass road to allow the incoming traffic from the incoming road to bypass the intersection node and flow to the outgoing road via the bypass road, and, if it is determined that there is the bypass road, generate data indicative of a turn restriction for communicating to road users of restriction of flow of the incoming traffic to the outgoing road via the intersection node.
