minus-squareinfeeeee@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up2·2 years agoIt seems you are right: https://www.magicearth.com/faq/#traffic-and-events-help Where do you get the traffic and road closure info from? We get it from a third-party provider; it is not created by us. It’s limited to mostly first world countries: https://www.magicearth.com/feature-availablity/#hd_traffic But somehow, someone tracking it’s users, I can’t imagine other way to get data like this. Maybe some carsharing service, company fleet management or something like that.
