Abstract

A method of operation of a navigation system includes: determining a social indicator for identifying a social relationship; adjusting a collection scope based on the social indicator for monitoring a user'"'"'s behavior; collecting a user'"'"'s information based on the collection scope; and generating a notification based on the user'"'"'s information for displaying on a device.

Claims

1. A method of operation of a navigation system comprising:

determining a social indicator for identifying a social relationship;

adjusting a collection scope based on the social indicator for monitoring a user'"'"'s behavior;

collecting a user'"'"'s information based on the collection scope; and

generating a notification based on the user'"'"'s information for displaying on a device.

2. The method as claimed in claim 1 further comprising:

generating a user type based on an activity pattern profile; and

wherein;

generating the notification includes customizing the notification based on the user type for displaying on the device.

3. The method as claimed in claim 1 further comprising extrapolating the collection scope based on a monitoring factor for adjusting the collection scope.

4. The method as claimed in claim 1 further comprising:

generating an activity pattern profile based on the user'"'"'s information; and

wherein;

generating the notification includes customizing the notification based on the activity pattern profile for displaying on the device.

5. The method as claimed in claim 1 further comprising:

setting a collection priority for adjusting the collection scope; and

wherein;

collecting the user'"'"'s information based on the collection priority for generating the notification.

6. A method of operation of a navigation system comprising:

determining a social indicator for identifying a social relationship;

adjusting a collection scope based on the social indicator for monitoring a user'"'"'s behavior;

collecting a user'"'"'s information based on the collection scope;

generating an activity pattern profile based on the user'"'"'s information; and

generating a notification based on the activity pattern profile for displaying on a device.

7. The method as claimed in claim 6 wherein adjusting the collection scope includes adjusting the collection scope based on an another user'"'"'s behavior for collecting the user'"'"'s information.

8. The method as claimed in claim 6 further comprising updating the collection scope based on the activity pattern profile for adjusting the collection scope.

9. The method as claimed in claim 6 further comprising updating the collection scope based on a geographic location for adjusting the collection scope.

10. The method as claimed in claim 6 further comprising updating the collection scope based on a user profile for adjusting the collection scope.

11. A navigation system comprising:

a factor module for determining a social indicator for identifying a social relationship;

a scope module, coupled to the factor module, for adjusting a collection scope based on the social indicator for monitoring a user'"'"'s behavior;

a collection module, coupled to the scope module, for collecting a user'"'"'s information based on the collection scope; and

a notification module, coupled to the collection module, for generating a notification based on the user'"'"'s information for displaying on a device.

12. The system as claimed in claim 11 further comprising:

a type module, coupled to the collection module, for generating a user type based on an activity pattern profile; and

wherein;

the notification module is for customizing the notification based on the user type.

13. The system as claimed in claim 11 wherein the scope module includes an extrapolation module for extrapolating the collection scope based on a monitoring factor for adjusting the collection scope.

14. The system as claimed in claim 11 further comprising:

a pattern module, coupled to the collection module for generating an activity pattern profile based on the user'"'"'s information; and

wherein;

the notification module is for customizing the notification based on the activity pattern profile for displaying on the device.

15. The system as claimed in claim 11 wherein:

the scope module includes a scope setting module for setting a collection priority; and

the collection module is for collecting the user'"'"'s information based on the collection priority for generating the notification.

16. The system as claimed in claim 11 further comprising:

a pattern module, coupled to the collection module for generating an activity pattern profile based on the user'"'"'s information; and

wherein;

the notification module is for generating a notification based on the activity pattern profile for displaying on a device.

17. The system as claimed in claim 16 wherein the scope module includes a scope adjuster module for adjusting the collection scope based on an another user'"'"'s behavior for collecting the user'"'"'s information.

18. The system as claimed in claim 16 wherein the scope module includes a scope adjuster module for updating the collection scope based on the activity pattern profile for adjusting the collection scope.

19. The system as claimed in claim 16 wherein the scope module includes a scope adjuster module for updating the collection scope based a geographic location for adjusting the collection scope.

20. The system as claimed in claim 16 wherein the scope module includes a scope adjuster module for updating the collection scope based a user profile for adjusting the collection scope.
