Abstract

Spatial-temporal data is widely available because of advancement in location acquisition technologies (GPS, GSM, Wifi, etc.) over past decades. This spatial-temporal data can easily be used to leverage user's trajectories, history, and habits to develop location-based services (LBS). But to leverage user's history based on location is bit challenging, in this paper we used the user's GPS log data to discover trajectories and analyze different life patterns over it. We proposed that a human spends 80% of his life on known places or safe places. We converted GPS patterns into visitation locations, converted them into daily and periodic trends and analyzed them over time to prove our assumption. We used the GPS data collected by Microsoft Research Asia, this data has 182 users with 73 users with their mode of movement information i.e., Taxi, Walk, Train etc.
