MapQuest has also made available a toolbar featuring one-click access to real-time traffic information, automatically updated every five minutes. Users who download the new toolbar will have instant access to the features they rely on from MapQuest.com, including finding places, directions and gas prices, no matter what site they’re browsing. Comment: The collaboration between MapQuest and INRIX, TomTom’s HD Traffic, and XM Satellite Radio’s NavTraffic service all show the significance of real time traffic-enabled dynamic navigation services, which help users choose the most convenient routes according to the current road conditions. Dynamic route planning services integrating real-time traffic information, weather forecast and rich personalized POI data are extremely attractive and valuable for users.   Time:2008-04-11 Source:NaviForum Shanghai News Center Relative
