METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PROVIDING GROUP ROUTE RECOMMENDATIONS
First Claim
1. A method comprising facilitating a processing of and/or processing (1) data and/or (2) information and/or (3) at least one signal, the (1) data and/or (2) information and/or (3) at least one signal based, at least in part, on the following:
- at least one determination of at least one group of one or more users within proximity of at least one location-based service, at least one location-based event, or a combination thereof;
a processing of one or more datasets associated with the at least one group to cause, at least in part, a determination of whether to recommend the at least one location-based service, the at least one location-based event, or a combination thereof to the at least one group; and
a presentation of the at least one location-based service, the at least one location-based event, or a combination thereof to the at least one group, the one or more users, or a combination thereof based, at least in part, on the determination of whether to recommend.

Abstract
An approach is provided for providing alternative route recommendations for a group of nearby users in a privacy preserving manner. A recommendation platform determines at least one group of one or more users within proximity of at least one location-based service, at least one location-based event, or a combination thereof. A recommendation platform processes and/or facilitates a processing of one or more datasets associated with the group to cause, at least in part, a determination of whether to recommend the at least one location-based service, the at least one location-based event, or a combination thereof to the group. A recommendation platform causes, at least in part, a presentation of the at least one location-based service, the at least one location-based event, or a combination thereof to the group, the one or more users, or a combination thereof based, at least in part, on the determination of whether to recommend.

11. An apparatus comprising:
-
at least one processor; and at least one memory including computer program code for one or more programs, the at least one memory and the computer program code configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus to perform at least the following, determine at least one group of one or more users within proximity of at least one location-based service, at least one location-based event, or a combination thereof; process and/or facilitate a processing of one or more datasets associated with the at least one group to cause, at least in part, a determination of whether to recommend the at least one location-based service, the at least one location-based event, or a combination thereof to the at least one group; and cause, at least in part, a presentation of the at least one location-based service, the at least one location-based event, or a combination thereof to the at least one group, the one or more users, or a combination thereof based, at least in part, on the determination of whether to recommend. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19)
