This data shows a relative volume of directions requests per country/region or city compared to a baseline volume on January 13th, 2020.
Days are defined as midnight-to-midnight, Pacific time. Cities represent usage in greater metropolitan areas and are stably defined during this period. In many countries/regions and cities, relative volume has increased since January 13th, consistent with normal, seasonal usage of Apple Maps. Day of week effects are important to normalize as you use this data.
Data that is sent from users’ devices to the Maps service is associated with random, rotating identifiers so Apple doesn’t have a profile of your movements and searches. Apple Maps has no demographic information about its users, so statements cannot be made about the representativeness of usage against the overall population.
This data is provided under custom terms from Apple (see the license tab for more information).
