A traffic routing and analysis system uses data from individual cellular or mobile devices to determine traffic density within a transportation network, such as subways, busses, roads, pedestrian walkways, or other networks. The system may use historical data derived from monitoring people's travel patterns, and may compare historical data to real time or near real time data to detect abnormalities. The system may be used for policy analysis, predicted commute times and route selection based on traffic patterns, as well as broadcast statistics that may be displayed to commuters. The system may be accessed through an application programming interface (API) for various applications, which may include applications that run on mobile devices, desktop or cloud based computers, or other devices.
