First Claim
1. A system comprising:
- a memory;
a computing system in communication with said memory configured to receive data from network management systems configured to receive plurality of connection requests from a plurality of user devices, said network management systems further configured to provide transmission control protocol handshake completion data responsive to said connection requests, wherein the data received comprises, for each user device of the plurality of user devices;
a device identifier included in one or more packets sent from the user device requesting access to an external network resource using a network management system at a venue;
one or more attributes associated with the venue;
user data associated with the user device; and
connection data associated with communications between the user device and said external network resource.

Abstract
Systems and methods described herein may include a memory and a computing a system in communication with said memory. The computing system may be configured to receive data from network management systems. In one embodiment, the network management system includes a network gateway. Users at venues may access external network resources using the network management system. Further, the network management systems may extract device identifiers from network packets sent from user devices to request access to external network resources. In some embodiments, the network management system may provide transmission control protocol handshake completion data to user devices. In some embodiments, the computing system also receives one or more attributes associated with the venue, user data associated with the user device, and connection data associated with communication between the user device and said external network resource.

19. A system comprising:
-
a data store configured to store travel patterns of users of a network management system allowing access to external network resources at a venue; a computing system in communication with said data store is configured to receive data from network management systems configured to receive plurality of connection requests from a plurality of user devices, said network management systems further configured to provide transmission control protocol handshake completion data responsive to said connection requests, wherein the data received comprises, for each user device of the plurality of user devices; a device identifier included in one or more packets sent from the user device requesting access to an external network resource using a network management system at a venue; and geographical location data associated with the venue; said computing system further configured to; generate a travel map based on the received data; determine a first geographical location of a first user device requesting access to external network resources at a network management portal from a first venue at the first geographical location; and identify a second geographical location that a first user of the first user device is likely to travel to next from the first geographical location.

20. A system comprising:
-
a data store; a computing system in communication with said data store is configured to receive data from network management systems configured to receive plurality of connection requests from a plurality of user devices, said network management systems further configured to provide transmission control protocol handshake completion data responsive to said connection requests, wherein the data received comprises, for each user device of the plurality of user devices; a device identifier included in one or more packets sent from the user device requesting access to an external network resource using a network management system at a venue; and user data associated with the user device; said computing system further configured to; store association between user data with respective device identifiers;
in the data store;receive a first device identifier included in one or more packets sent from a first user device requesting access to an external network resource using one of said network management systems; determine if the first device identifier is included in the data store; and associate the first device with one of the users stored in the data store based in part on the received data.
