METHOD, SYSTEM AND COMPUTER PROGRAM FOR DETECTING AND MONITORING HUMAN ACTIVITY UTILIZING LOCATION DATA

摘要

A method, system and computer program for detecting and displaying a person's activity-travel pattern over time and space is provided. Person-based location data is acquired by a personal communication device and processed in accordance with an algorithm. The invention goes beyond applications that focus on the detection of the current location of the user, but rather the enhanced knowledge of the users current, past, and likely future activities and their multi¬ dimensional attributes. The present invention can be implemented on common hardware and is easily accessible via web-based interfaces and reporting, making various applications achievable at very low cost.
