Abstract

Systems and methods of using satellite signal strength to determine indoor/outdoor transition points for places are disclosed herein. In some example embodiments, a computer system accesses service data and sensor data for a plurality of requests for a transportation service associated with a place, with the service data comprising pick-up data indicating a pick-up location and drop-off data indicating a drop-off location, and the sensor data comprising satellite signals indicating a pick-up path or a drop-off path, with the satellite signals each having a corresponding signal strength. The computer system determines a transition geographic location for the place based on the signal strengths of the satellite signals.
