Method and device for determining a region of interest based on geolocation data

摘要

The present application provides a method and device for determining a region of interest based on geolocation data. The method includes gridding an area on a map to be processed; Counting a block value for each block in the gridd area within a preset duration, wherein the block value is a quantity of users reporting geolocation data in the corresponding block; Selecting a block value larger than a preset threshold from the counted block values; Determining an anchor point according to the block corresponding to the selected block value; Calculating a curve including all of the anchor points according to the anchor points and based on a preset algorithm; And determining an area within the curve as an area of interest. By applying the embodiment of the present application, the region of interest is determined by using the geolocation data reported by the user, thereby avoiding the low efficiency and high cost caused by manually classifying the region of interest. And, thereby, it is possible to improve the efficiency and reduce the cost for determining the area of interest.
