"The internet of moving things is giving us whole new sets of data.Delivery companies, taxis, travel cards, smartphones, and connected cars are all pushing movement data to the cloud which we can then mash up with real-world maps to create a space/time engine."

The internet of moving things can go so far as to Asia and South America. This type of technology would work in Singapore to Sao Paulo. This means that the internet of moving things would work in discovering ways how to clear heavy traffic in new roads never before discovered by this technology.
