  • receiving a first time data from an occupancy sensor associated with the location, the first time data indicating a first time at which the location becomes occupied;

    receiving a second time data from a mobile device associated with a user, the second time data indicating a second time at which a motion sensor of the mobile device senses a movement of the mobile device that implies occupancy of the location by the user;

    determining from the first time data and the second time data whether a correlation exists between the occupancy sensor sensing the occupancy of the location and the motion sensor sensing the movement;

    receiving an identification data of the user from the mobile device if the correlation is determined to exist; and

    associating the user as the occupant of the location using the identification data.
