Abstract:
1. A method comprising: by a computing device, receiving location data from a mobile computing device associated with a user, the location data comprising one or more location readings being sent automatically and without manual input from the user; by the computing device, representing the location data as one or more geo-location data points based at least in part on a distance between the location readings and the geo-location data points; and by the computing device, grouping, through a k-means spatial-clustering algorithm, one or more of the geo-location data points into one or more geo-location clusters based at least in part on a distance between each geo-location data point and a geo-location centroid of each geo-location cluster, wherein each geo-location data points is placed with a particular one of the geo-location clusters based at least in part on a distance between the geo-location data point and the geo-location centroid of the particular one of the geo-location clusters being less than a pre-determined threshold value.
