METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PROVIDING QUALITATIVE TRAJECTORY ANALYTICS TO CLASSIFY PROBE DATA
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- processing and/or facilitating a processing of probe data to determine one or more trajectories associated with one or more probes;
determining one or more clips of the one or more trajectories associated with one or more locations at which the one or more probes lingered based, at least in part, on at least one space threshold value, at least one time threshold value, or a combination thereof;
causing, at least in part, an extraction of one or more probe parameter values from the one or more clips;
causing, at least in part, a classification of the one or more probe parameter values into one or more qualitative categories; and
determining one or more points of interest, one or more characteristics of the one or more points of interest, or a combination thereof associated with the one or more locations based, at least in part, on the one or more qualitative categories.

Abstract
An approach is provided for classifying probe data into qualitative categories to determine a point of interest. The approach involves processing and/or facilitating a processing of probe data to determine one or more trajectories associated with one or more probes. The approach also involves determining one or more clips of the one or more trajectories associated with one or more locations at which the one or more probes lingered based, at least in part, on at least one space threshold value, at least one time threshold value, or a combination thereof. The approach further involves causing, at least in part, an extraction of one or more probe parameter values from the one or more clips. The approach also involves causing, at least in part, a classification of the one or more probe parameter values into one or more qualitative categories. The approach further involves determining one or more points of interest, one or more characteristics of the one or more points of interest, or a combination thereof associated with the one or more locations based, at least in part, on the one or more qualitative categories.

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, process and/or facilitate a processing of probe data to determine one or more trajectories associated with one or more probes; determine one or more clips of the one or more trajectories associated with one or more locations at which the one or more probes lingered based, at least in part, on at least one space threshold value, at least one time threshold value, or a combination thereof; cause, at least in part, an extraction of one or more probe parameter values from the one or more clips; cause, at least in part, a classification of the one or more probe parameter values into one or more qualitative categories; and determine one or more points of interest, one or more characteristics of the one or more points of interest, or a combination thereof associated with the one or more locations based, at least in part, on the one or more qualitative categories. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17)

18. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium carrying one or more sequences of one or more instructions which, when executed by one or more processors, cause an apparatus to at least perform the following steps:
-
process and/or facilitate a processing of probe data to determine one or more trajectories associated with one or more probes; determine one or more clips of the one or more trajectories associated with one or more locations at which the one or more probes lingered based, at least in part, on at least one space threshold value, at least one time threshold value, or a combination thereof; cause, at least in part, an extraction of one or more probe parameter values from the one or more clips; cause, at least in part, a classification of the one or more probe parameter values into one or more qualitative categories; and determine one or more points of interest, one or more characteristics of the one or more points of interest, or a combination thereof associated with the one or more locations based, at least in part, on the one or more qualitative categories. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20)
