Abstract
A method of generating a scenic rating for segments of an electronic map involves obtaining probe data relating to the movement of a plurality of devices with respect to time in the area, and, for each one of a plurality of segments of the electronic map; identifying a set of positional data relating to the movement of devices along the navigable element represented by the segment, filtering the identified set of positional data relating to the movement of devices along the navigable element represented by the segment based on mode of transport to obtain one or more subset of the identified positional data relating to the movement of devices along the element represented by the segment which may be expected to relate to traversals of the navigable element for recreational purposes, using the or each obtained subset of the positional data to obtain one or more scenicity parameter which may be used in determining a scenic rating for the segment indicative of a scenicity of the navigable element represented by the segment, and using the one or more obtained scenicity parameter to determine a scenic rating for the segment.
