Applicative Scenarios

Once suitable methods for interpreting and delivering geographic knowledge on trajectories are available, several application scenarios become enabled, at different levels (societal, individual, business):

• toward the society: typically, we have applications for sustainable mobility, such as dynamic traffic monitoring, traffic management, public transportation and urban planning;
• toward the network operator: here, the analysis of the people movements is exploited by the network operator to support optimization of the network infrastructure;
• toward the individual: in this class of application the extracted knowledge may be sent back to the mobile user for a form of personalized location-based services (LBS).
