I can haz traffic updatez?

Has anyone (in Calgary) noticed that on Google Maps, Calgary now has traffic updates?

You have the choice of getting live traffic conditions, or choose traffic at a certain day and time, which is presented based on what traffic has been like historically during that time.

I don’t know if it’s a by-product of ongoing improvements on the site, but there aren’t many routes being monitored outside of Deerfoot Trail and few other major routes. No Sarcee Trail, no downtown roads, no Memorial Drive, etc.

Now, what would be really cool is if Google could make an iPhone app that when functioning on a phone, could send real time vehicle movements to Google Maps to contribute to the live data. Then Google could offer route delay warnings, alternate routes and so forth. Someday, these kinds of features will be ubiquitous.
