DRIVER PROFILING SYSTEM AND METHOD
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A computer-implemented method of profiling a driver comprising:
- identifying events in data representing motion of a vehicle, the events including acceleration events and/or braking events characterised by the speed at which the vehicle was travelling when the respective event occurred;
selecting one or more of the events based on a profile index associated with a respective event and on at least one attribute derived from the respective event, the profile index relating at least to a link on which the vehicle was travelling at a point during the respective event;
determining a driver profile from the selected events; and
characterising the driving behaviour of the driver on the basis of the driver profile.

Abstract
A computer-implemented method of profiling a driver comprises: identifying events in data representing motion of a vehicle; for the events, associating an event with a profile index relating at least to a link on which the vehicle was travelling when the respective event occurred; sorting the events into groups, each group corresponding to a different profile index; determining a driver profile from the events; and characterising the driving behaviour of the driver on the basis of the driver profile.

14. A device for profiling a driver comprising:
-
means for generating a network of links from a road map; and means for generating, for a link, one or more link indexes, at least one link index being associated with an attribute of the link that influences the behaviour of a driver traversing that link. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16)
