Claim Text:
1. A computer implemented method for determining a driving pattern, the method comprising: receiving, via a computer network, telematics data corresponding to a trip of a moving vehicle and originating from a client computing device; combining, by one or more processors, the telematics data; identifying, by the one or more processors, a primary movement window from the telematics data, wherein the primary movement window is indicative of the client computing device being static with respect to the moving vehicle; estimating, by the one or more processors, a gravitational constant from the combined telematics data in the primary movement window such that the gravitational constant is the only force acting on a Z-Axis of the moving vehicle according to a reference frame of the moving vehicle; generating, by the one or more processors, a pitch angle and a roll angle from the combined telematics data in the primary movement window that aligns the gravitational constant with the Z-Axis of the moving vehicle; and determining, by the one or more processors, the driving pattern using at least the pitch angle and the roll angle.
