Abstract: New travel speed survey methodologies by prove cars with advanced information systems are examined in many places. It is considered that the methodologies enable temporally and spatially continuous observation. In order to know the relationship between the number of prove cars and the performance of the new travel speed survey system, a simulation system is developed in this study. Results of this study indicate that 0.3% of total cars are necessary to obtain travel speed data for every hour during daytime on roads with 30, 000 traffic volume, and more cars are needed to cover lower-volume roads.
