Abstract:
A user's location may be estimated by applying a probability function to raw user location data taken from various telephony or wireless systems. The probability function may estimate a user's location based on a training dataset that may be generated a priori to the analysis. A training dataset may be generated or updated by analyzing queries made with global positioning system (GPS) data to extract a device's GPS location. The probability function may be generated in part from physical maps. The estimated location may improve location accuracy, especially when attempting to map a user's location with accuracies that may be much smaller than a cell of a cellular telephony system.
