Abstract
One or more electronic devices can map an environment based on movement or location data of the one or more electronic devices within the environment. The data can be analyzed, processed, or otherwise relied on to generate a path along which one or more of the electronic devices were carried (e.g., by a user) or located at given time over the duration of time. The path and attributes related to the environment can be analyzed (e.g., using machine learning techniques) to generate a topological or other type of map of the environment.
