Abstract
Embodiments described herein relate to anonymizing sensor data through the use of map data. Methods include: receiving sensor data defining a trajectory; map-matching the sensor data using a map-matching algorithm to a plurality of road segments of a map database to generate a sequence of map-matched sensor data elements; determining a first value representing anonymization associated with a start of the trajectory; determining a second value representing anonymization associated with an end of the trajectory; determining first map-matched sensor data elements at the start of the trajectory to be redacted based on the first value; determining second map-matched sensor data elements at the end of the trajectory to be redacted based on the second value; and transmitting sensor data associated with elements in the sequence of map-matched sensor data elements between the first map-matched sensor data elements and the second map-matched sensor data elements.
