TomTom and Esri fusion transform urban mobility

April 28, 2025 Read time: 2 mins

A collaboration between TomTom and Esri will take centre stage at the upcoming Congress with a session titled "Driving Insights: Unlocking the Power of TomTom Historic Traffic Data in ArcGIS.” Led by industry experts Frans Keijzer from TomTom and Jaime Nieves from Esri Spain, this presentation will showcase how integrating TomTom's historical traffic data with the ArcGIS platform has transformed urban mobility in Gran Canaria, Spain.

The initiative, spearheaded by Esri Spain and Sagulpa, sought to create a digital twin of the urban area to enhance planning and management. By leveraging TomTom's robust traffic data and using ArcGIS, the team swiftly deployed interactive maps and applications without extensive IT support. Key tools included TomTom Traffic Stats and TomTom Origin-Destination for traffic analysis and ArcGIS Dashboards and ArcGIS Experience Builder for dynamic visualizations.

This session (on Tuesday 20 May 20 from 11.45 to 12.45 in Hall Madrid D) will showcase the significant potential of TomTom Move data when combined with ArcGIS, making it an essential tool for those interested in advancing urban mobility solutions. Attendees will learn about three main applications derived from this initiative: a safety dashboard for monitoring traffic flow, a public transportation and emergency response planning tool, and an event traffic analysis application for managing large-scale events like football matches. These tools provide decision-makers with valuable insights, leading to improved traffic safety and optimised transportation routes.
