Abstract
Measuring the traffic parameters may be considered as one of the key operations in traffic management. With the contemporary monitoring systems, this issue transformed from the problem of gathering data to the issue of big data processing. In this chapter, we propose the methodological approach to the processing and analysing of the real-time flow of information from the traffic toll system. The core classes library developed in Python programming language implements the methodology of data processing. The results of the data analysis from the viaTOLL system (Poland) illustrate the use of the proposed approach.
