          We wont be able to provide you the calculation behind JF. It is complex and not made visible to freemium users. If you have a paid plan please approach your sales contact.



          "JF" = The number between 0.0 and 10.0 indicating the expected quality of travel. When there is a road closure, the Jam Factor will be 10. As the number approaches 10.0 the quality of travel is getting worse. -1.0 indicates that a Jam Factor could not be calculated
