The ongoing development of new traffic monitoring technologies gives rise to a situation with multiple sources of data and multiple algorithms for the estimation of variables that may be of interest, among them information on travel time. This context with data from different sources, all of them imprecise to varying degrees, is the right one for applying data merging techniques. Their objective is to obtain a more reliable and precise merged value than that obtained from any individual estimations by themselves. This article presents a simple data merging methodology for the estimation of travel time on the highway. The proposed method uses data from loop detectors and toll tickets and would be easy to extend to other data sources. Its pilot application on the AP-7 highway has produced promising results.
