Here we go: another interesting feature layer: PTV_TruckWaitingTimes shows the statistical waiting times for trucks at specific gates. The info is daytime dependent, therefore I generated two comparison maps.
comparison of truck waiting time. Twice the same area. <br />Left map: midnight = 00:00<br />Right map: noon = 12:00

Dear Bernd

sounds gorgeous!

Just for my confirmation:
1. this FL works with xs1 and 2?
2. this FL is only available for EU?

After looking to your screen shots from France I'm a little bit confused: what may be the benefit of this FL in comparison to TruckSpeedPatterns? My thinking till now was, that speed patterns are reflecting waiting times due to traffic jam etc.. Am I wrong?

Actually I can't anticipate if perhaps the combination of Waiting- and SpeedPatterns offers new possibilities.

Please be a little more specific! What about a vid in youtube?

Kind Regards

Gooood morning MisterX,

the screenshots have been made with xServer1 and one of my generic tools. So the new Feature Layer works with xServer1 and with xServer2.

About the content: as with most data the question about the coverage is a very important one (you know what I refer to :oops: ).

For now I know that this layer is available for the two european maps 2017.1T and 2017.1H.

I'll redirect your question to the data experts when I'm in the office ;-)

C u,
Bernd
