I wouldn't know where to begin in solving that problem.
Or, actually, I would know how to begin (by parsing the data files and
creating data structures to represent the data), but then I'd have nfi
what to do.
In broad strokes how would you go about solving a problem like this?
It seems to me that future traffic is probably more likely to vary based
on more than past traffic patterns. E.g. big events (like Christmas)
that get everyone on (or off) the road. Although, perhaps effects based
on ad hoc events are infrequent enough or negligible enough to get
decent results without factoring them in.
