1. A computer-implemented method, comprising:
receiving, with at least one processor, a plurality of transaction authorization requests occurring in an electronic payment processing network in real-time, the plurality of transaction authorization requests associated with a plurality of transactions between at least one consumer and at least one point-of-sale terminal in a region;
identifying, with at least one processor and based on the plurality of transaction authorization requests, at least one geographic node of activity in the region comprising the at least one point-of-sale terminal;
generating, with at least one processor and based at least partially on a transportation categorization of the at least one consumer, an estimate of traffic intensity for the at least one geographic node of activity;
comparing, with at least one processor, the estimate of traffic intensity for the at least one geographic node of activity to a threshold of traffic intensity;
in response to determining that the estimate of traffic intensity for the at least one geographic node of activity satisfies the threshold of traffic intensity, generating, with at least one processor, a communication to at least one navigation device in the region, the communication configured to cause the at least one navigation device to modify a navigation route; and
transmitting, with at least one processor, the communication to the at least one navigation device.
