1. A method comprising:
- collecting context data on offline activities of a user;
mapping the collected context data as context data points into a multidimensional contextual model;
causing, at least in part, actions that result in reception of at least one multidimensional contextual model of another user; and
comparing the multidimensional contextual model of the user with the multidimensional contextual model of the another user.

Abstract
An approach is provided for providing a contextual model based upon user context data. A context modeling platform collects context data on offline activities of a user. The context modeling platform maps the collected user context data as context data points into a multidimensional contextual model. The context modeling platform causes, at least in part, actions that result in reception of at least one multidimensional contextual model of another user. The context modeling platform compares the multidimensional contextual model of the user with the multidimensional contextual model of the another user.
