Sensor data control

Abstract

A method is disclosed for controlling provision of sensor data. The method includes detecting a canvas request from the application, wherein the canvas request is associated with an execution request from the application to an application server. The method also includes—based on a privacy certification status of the sensor—selectively causing the sensor data and the canvas request to be provided to a map server. Provision of the sensor data and the canvas request to the map server causes a canvas response to be provided from the map server to the application. The canvas response is for processing by the application of an execution response provided by the application server in response to the execution request. The sensor data is inaccessible to the application and to the application server. Corresponding computer program product, apparatus, sensor data management controller, wireless communication device, and system are also disclosed.
