OVERLAPPING GEOGRAPHIC AREAS
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for identifying an overlapping area, the method comprising:
- receiving, via one or more processors, telematics data associated with a first vehicle, wherein the telematics data is collected while the first vehicle operates within a first geographic area;
receiving, via the one or more processors, telematics data associated with a second vehicle, wherein the telematics data is collected while the second vehicle operates within a second geographic area;
identifying, via the one or more processors, an overlapping area, wherein (1) the overlapping area is identified based at least in part from the (a) telematics data associated with the first vehicle and (b) the telematics data associated with the second vehicle, and (2) at least a portion of the overlapping area is within the first geographic area and the second geographic area; and
assigning, via the one or more processors, one or more detected locations in the overlapping area to at least one of the first geographic area or the second geographic area for travel to the detected locations by a vehicle.

Abstract
Systems, methods, apparatus, and computer program products are provided for identifying overlapping areas. For example, in one embodiment, telematics data can be collected as vehicles traverse various geographic areas. Then, the areas traversed by the vehicles can be displayed to identify overlapping areas.

8. An apparatus comprising at least one processor and at least one memory including computer program code, the at least one memory and the computer program code configured to, with the processor, cause the apparatus to at least:
-
receive telematics data associated with a first vehicle, wherein the telematics data is collected while the first vehicle operates within a first geographic area; receive telematics data associated with a second vehicle, wherein the telematics data is collected while the second vehicle operates within a second geographic area; identify an overlapping area, wherein (1) the overlapping area is identified based at least in part from the (a) telematics data associated with the first vehicle and (b) the telematics data associated with the second vehicle, and (2) at least a portion of the overlapping area is within the first geographic area and the second geographic area; and assign one or more detected locations in the overlapping area to at least one of the first geographic area or the second geographic area for travel to the detected locations by a vehicle. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 23)

15. A computer program product for identifying an overlapping area, the computer program product comprising at least one non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having computer-readable program code portions stored therein, the computer-readable program code portions comprising:
-
an executable portion configured to receive telematics data associated with a first vehicle, wherein the telematics data is collected while the first vehicle operates within a first geographic area; an executable portion configured to receive telematics data associated with a second vehicle, wherein the telematics data is collected while the second vehicle operates within a second geographic area; an executable portion configured to identify an overlapping area, wherein (1) the overlapping area is identified based at least in part from the (a) telematics data associated with the first vehicle and (b) the telematics data associated with the second vehicle, and (2) at least a portion of the overlapping area is within the first geographic area and the second geographic area; and an executable portion configured to assign one or more detected locations in the overlapping area to at least one of the first geographic area or the second geographic area for travel to the detected locations by a vehicle. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 24)
