METHOD OF PROCESSING POSITIONING DATA
First Claim
1. A method of processing positioning data to create map data, the map data comprising a plurality of navigable segments representing segments of a navigable route in an area covered by the map, speed data being associated with each segment, the method comprising:
- i. processing the speed data to categorise the speed data into a plurality of time periods for the navigable segment with which the speed data is associated; and
ii. averaging the speed data within each time period in order to generate a measured speed profile for the navigable segment.

Abstract
A method of processing positioning data to create map data is disclosed, the map data including a plurality of navigable segments representing segments of a navigable route in the area covered by the map with each segment being arranged to have speed data associated therewith. In at least one embodiment, the method includes processing the speed data to categorise the speed data into a plurality of time periods for the navigable segment with which the speed data is associated; and averaging the speed data within each time period in order to generate a measured speed profile for the navigable segment.

14. A machine comprising:
-
a processor to process map data comprising a plurality of navigable segments representing segments of a navigable route in an area covered by the map, speed data being associated with each segment, the processor being arrange to at least; process the speed data to categorise the speed data into a plurality of time periods for the navigable segment with which the speed data is associated; and average the speed data within each time period to generate a measured speed profile for the navigable segment.

15. Map data comprising:
a plurality of navigable segments representing segments of a navigable route in an area covered by the map, speed data being associated with each segment, wherein the speed data comprises a set of time periods in which an average speed is stored in at least some time period, wherein the average speed represents average traffic speed along the navigable segment with which that speed data is associated in the time period. - View Dependent Claims (20)
