Application: Labeling a significant location based on contextual data (Patent ID: US20240102822A1)

The patent filed by Apple Inc. describes a method and system for labeling significant locations based on contextual data gathered by a computing device. The method involves determining the geographic location of the device, identifying significant locations based on clusters of position coordinates, analyzing contextual data such as movement patterns and physical activities at these locations, and displaying labels for these significant locations on a graphical interface. The system utilizes sensor data and a state model to analyze movement patterns and determine labels based on factors like dwell time and frequency of visits.

Furthermore, the system can receive requests for data associated with significant locations, provide this data including labels, and display them on a graphical interface using a map engine. The method also involves determining significant locations based on points of interest near the device's location, and analyzing contextual data associated with these points to assign labels. Overall, the patent outlines a comprehensive approach to automatically labeling significant locations based on contextual data, movement patterns, and physical activities, enhancing the user experience and personalization of location-based services on computing devices.
