OBJECT ASSOCIATION USING DYNAMIC OBJECT LOCATION CORRELATION
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method of object association comprising:
- receiving, by a computer system, object location information for a first object;
receiving, by said computer system, object location information for a second object;
determining, by said computer system, an existence of a correlation between a varying position of said first object and a varying position of said second object over a predetermined amount of time; and
dynamically associating, by said computer system, said first object with said second object based on said correlation.

Abstract
A method of object association is disclosed. The method includes receiving object location information for a first object, receiving object location information for a second object, determining an existence of a correlation between a varying position of the first object and a varying position of the second object over for a predetermined amount of time and dynamically associating the first object with the second object based on the correlation.

8. A method of object association comprising:
-
storing, by a computer system, a first route history for a first moving object based on received object PVT information for said first moving object; storing, by said computer system, a second route history for a moving second object based on received object PVT information for said second moving object; determining, by said computer system, an existence of a statistical correlation, beyond a predetermined threshold, between said first varying route history and said second route history; and dynamically associating, by said computer system, said first moving object with said second moving object based on said statistical correlation. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)

15. A system for object association comprising:
-
a processor; a database coupled with said processor for storing a first route history for a first moving object based on received object PVT information for said first moving object; said database also for storing a second route history for a moving second object based on received object PVT information for said second moving object; a correlation determiner coupled with said database and coupled with said processor for determining an existence of a statistical correlation, beyond a predetermined threshold, between said first varying route history and said second route history; and an object associator coupled with said correlation determiner for dynamically associating said first moving object with said second moving object based on said statistical correlation. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21)
