“Market demand for traffic-enabled applications is building on the significant market growth in the portable and auto navigation device markets, the emergence of the off-board navigation market and the availability of nationwide traffic speed data,” says Inrix CEO Bryan Mistele. “In just one year, we've grown the maximum available coverage of real-time traffic flow information in the U.S. from 36 markets to 94 and 8,000 miles to 55,000.”
