Abstract

A method, apparatus and network node for clustering a terrestrial area based on Geohash coordinates by selecting a node based on a Geohash area identified by a Geohash string of a predetermined length; subdividing the Geohash area into subareas by increasing the Geohash string by a length of one; and sequencing through the subareas to identify subarea/subareas that exceed a threshold number of a selected parameter. For subareas not exceeding the threshold number of the selected parameter, combining those subareas into clusters without exceeding the threshold number of the selected parameter in respective clusters. For subareas exceeding the threshold number of the selected parameters, subdividing those subareas into further subareas by increasing the Geohash string by one and sequencing through the further subareas to place the further subareas into clusters without exceeding the threshold number of the selected parameter.
