cool, i was not aware of that application. might be worth looking into. it feels like it wold need a pretty large critical mass to make real time traffic useful though.
AFAIK they sell location libraries and maps, the app is just an “example” of how to consume their real product, and is probably used to also collect anonymized realtime data.
Magic Earth has realtime traffic in it. Or close to. Use it to contribute. I keep it on when I’m driving even if I don’t need it for navigation.
