🏍️ Angkas, the Philippines' leading motorcycle rideshare company, needed to scale its platform. Using Google Maps Platform and with our partner Navagis Inc., Angkas fundamentally changed its matching system with immediate, measurable results ➡️ https://goo.gle/3LZ6nVl "The impact on speed has been dramatic," Angkas Chief Technology Officer Josef Puchinger said. "In the best case scenario, allocation time dropped from 10 seconds to nearly instant, with average allocation times declining by more than 30%. In addition, pickup distance has fallen by 15%, directly improving driver productivity and earnings."

Google Maps Platform reposted this
Traditional traffic safety evaluation relies on historical crash data, which is often a "lagging" indicator and statistically sparse on many roads. Our Mobility AI team established a statistically significant correlation between hard-braking events (HBEs) and actual road segment crash rates. By analyzing anonymized data from Android Auto, we found that HBEs provide a signal 18 times more dense than traditional crash reports, allowing for the identification of high-risk locations — like the Highway 101 and 880 merge in California — without waiting for years of collision history. We are now working with Google Maps Platform to integrate these leading indicators into the Roads Management Insights offering to help transportation agencies improve infrastructure safety.
