CREATING TASKS AND PARAMETERS
Start by selecting Google Services>Traffic service from the left panel and open the Google Maps Traffic Scraper service.
There are only 5 essential parameters that should be defined to create a task.
Determine the Start and End Points
Start - Stop Locations
Google Maps Traffic Scraper needs a start and end point to work. You can use any expression that works in Google Maps to specify these start and end points. Coordinates can be used; textual descriptions can also be used.
Here’s an example of a textual description for start-stop locations:
And an example of coordinates usage for start-stop locations:
Traffic data can be extracted between two points, both as a textual expression and by entering the coordinates. You can crawl multiple points for the same parameters in the same task. In the same task, you can crawl multiple points for the same parameters.
Google-like Plain Queries
You can use anything that will work on the Google Maps site, which also functions here. The most important aspect of using this feature is that it provides convenience when creating tasks with too many start-stop points. You can scrape all points by typing Queries, Coordinates, or Places under each other in one task.
Time Frame
It is necessary to determine the time frame in which you will scrape your start – stop locations. The point you should pay attention to is that the time zone is UTC. If you are going to make an analysis according to your own time zone, you must keep this in mind. Here you may determine your time zone and UTC:

You can scrape historical Google Maps Traffic data up to 2005, as it varies from region to region.
Time Interval (Min)
One request equals the data for a specific route at a specific time. For example, if you set the time interval to 5 minutes, the bot will make 12 requests to extract data from “Intersection of 19th Ave and Santiago St” to “Intersection of 19th Ave and Irving St” with a 5 minute interval during an hour.
Result Extension
You can choose between XLSX, CSV, or Parquet file types, whichever is appropriate for your project.
Task Tags
Any words can be used here. The main purpose is to track the results on the Tasks page.
Task tags make tracking easy.
Final Check
We recommend that you check all parameters one last time before confirming your task.
Confirm Your Task
