A method for calculating traffic flow changes includes detecting a traffic event. The method further includes determining an affected area of the traffic event and determining an investigation area based on the affected area. The method further includes selecting at least one vehicle located within the investigation area and calculating a change in traffic flow due to the traffic event based on a comparison of a predicted traffic flow with a current traffic flow, wherein the current traffic flow is based on information received from the at least one vehicle. The method further includes updating the affected area based on the change in traffic flow and calculating an updated change in traffic flow based on the updated affected area when the updated affected area is larger than a predetermined threshold area.
