Method and apparatus for crowdsourcing the location of mobile terrestrial transports
摘要:
Techniques are provided which may be implemented using various methods and/or apparatuses in a mobile device to crowd source mobile terrestrial transceiver identifiers associated with mobile terrestrial transports. In an embodiment, transceiver identifiers associated with mobile terrestrial transports may be identified and tracked through the detection and measurement of signals transmitted by mobile terrestrial transceivers received either by mobile devices located on the mobile terrestrial transport or through the detection and measurement of transient signals transmitted by passing mobile terrestrial transceivers received by stationary or near stationary mobile devices. The identity of detected mobile terrestrial transceivers and their locations and time observed may be uploaded to a server. The crowdsourced location and schedule information for the mobile terrestrial transports may be downloaded to mobile devices to provide transportation information such as arrival times, departure alerts, targeted stop alerts and other transport related functionality.
