Route information data records are received from a navigation system indicating road elements and maneuvers between a starting point and a destination point. An estimated time of arrival is established using the route information data records. A personalized correction value based on the road elements, maneuvers, and a driver profile is determined. A personalized time of arrival is calculated based on the estimated time of arrival value and the personalized correction value.

Private and personalized estimation of travel time

Embodiments described herein may provide a method for identifying geo-tagged objects or events and estimating the probability that a vehicle path will intersect with the geo-tagged object or event. Methods may include: determining a first map-matched location and a second map-matched location; determining a plurality of road segments emanating from or leading to the first map-matched location, a portion of which connect between the first map-matched location and the second map-matched location; calculating at least one of a weight or a turn probability for turning onto a road segment for each road segment of the plurality of road segments; and determining, from the weight or the turn probability associated with each road segment of the portion of road segments that connect between the first map-matched location and the second map-matched location, a probability of a path taken between the first map-matched location and the second map-matched location.

Method, apparatus and computer program product for a navigation system user interface

An approach is provided for parking availability detection based on vehicle trajectory information. A trajectory processing platform processes and/or facilitates a processing of trajectory data associated with at least one journey of at least one vehicle to determine at least one portion of the at least one journey that is associated at least one parking search by the at least one vehicle. The trajectory processing platform also determines one or more street segments associated with the at least one portion of the at least one journey. The trajectory processing platform further causes, at least in part, a classification of the one or more street segments as associated with the at least one parking search. The trajectory processing platform further determines parking availability information for the one or more street segments based, at least in part, on the trajectory data.

Method and apparatus for providing parking availability detection based on vehicle trajectory information

An approach is provided for providing a map view that compliments an augmented reality view while a user navigates and interacts within a scene. A mapping platform determines a virtual floor surface of at least one presentation of a perspective-based display of location information. A mapping platform causes, at least in part, a rendering of a partial map view on the virtual floor surface, wherein the partial map view provides an alternate view of the location information.

Method and apparatus for transitioning from a partial map view to an augmented reality view

An approach is provided for providing an interactive perspective-based point of interest layout in an augmented reality view. The layout platform determines at least one zoom level for rendering of one or more representations of one or more items in a perspective-based display based, at least in part, on at least one push interaction or at least one pull interaction in the perspective-based display. The layout platform causes, at least in part, a rendering of the one or more representations based, at least in part, on the at least one zoom level.

Method and apparatus for layout for augmented reality view

An approach is provided for providing list-based exploration of mapping data. The list-based exploration platform causes, at least in part, an association of one or more features of a geographical area with one or more list objects. Next, the list-based exploration platform processes and/or facilitates a processing of location information associated with one or more map data items to group, to sort, or a combination thereof the one or more map data items into the one or more list objects. Then, the list-based exploration platform causes, at least in part, a rendering of at least one of the one or more list objects in a user interface, wherein the user interface includes one or more user interface elements for controlling a browsing of the one or more map data items in the at least one of the one or more list objects.

Method and apparatus for providing list-based exploration of mapping data

An approach is provided for providing context-related destination location recommendations. The destination recommendation platform determines at least one context associated with at least one user. The platform processes and/or facilitates a processing of mobility pattern information associated with the at least one user to determine one or more predicted destination locations and associated probability information based, at least in part, on the at least one context. The probability information represents respective one or more probabilities that the at least one user will travel to the one or more predicted destination locations under the at least one context. The platform further determines entropy information based, at least in part, on the probability information. The platform determines whether to cause, at least in part, a presentation of one or more recommended destination locations to the at least one user based, at least in part, on the entropy information.
