1. A mobile communication device comprising:

  • wireless local area network (WLAN) baseband hardware comprising at least one WLAN transceiver;

    non-volatile, non-transitory memory, storing a transportation model based on aggregated basic service set identification (BSSID) information collected from a plurality of WLAN access points, the transportation model comprising a histogram for BSSIDs collected and aggregated from the plurality of WLAN access points;

    at least one sensor, operative to detect motion of the mobile communication device where the at least one sensor is an accelerometer or gyroscope; and

    at least one processor, operatively coupled to the WLAN baseband hardware, the memory and to the at least one sensor, the at least one processor operative to;

    determine that the mobile communication device is located on public transportation using the transportation model histogram in response to a motion detection signal received from the at least one sensor;

    where public transportation is a vehicle selected from the group comprising;

    a bus and a train.
