Embodiments of a method for improving movement characteristic determination using a plurality of mobile devices associated with a vehicle can include: collecting a first movement dataset corresponding to at least one of a first location sensor and a first motion sensor of a first mobile device of the plurality of mobile devices; collecting a second movement dataset corresponding to at least one of a second location sensor and a second motion sensor of a second mobile device of the plurality of mobile devices; determining satisfaction of a device association condition indicative of the first and the second mobile devices as associated with the vehicle, based on the first and the second movement datasets; and after determining the satisfaction of the device association condition, determining a vehicle movement characteristic based on the first and the second movement datasets.

Method for mobile device-based cooperative data capture

A method for characterizing a user associated with a vehicle including collecting a movement dataset sampled at least at one of a location sensor and a motion sensor associated with the vehicle, during a time period associated with movement of the vehicle; extracting a set of movement features associated with movement of at least one of the user and the vehicle during the time period; and determining one or more user characteristics describing the user based on the set of movement features, wherein the one or more user characteristics include a classification of the user as at least one of a passenger and a driver for the time period associated with movement of the vehicle.
