ABSTRACT:
Information (e.g. traffic information) is retrieved from a server. The content of the information is reviewed in order to determine which of a plurality of prestored speech files should be used to report the information. The selected speech files are concatenated to form an audio presentation. The speech files may include phrases identifying incident types, locations, severity and/or timing information, as well as other filler words that improve the audio presentation. In some embodiments, the audio presentation is accompanied by video and/or graphics that can be referenced by the audio presentation.
