Abstract
A computer-based system to determine a distribution of times a vehicle spends at different locations on a route has a global positioning system, a microprocessor, an output device and computer instructions. The instructions cause the system to read in from the GPS a monitored location of the vehicle and an associated time. The system then calculates a corrected location of the vehicle based on the closest point of the route to the monitored location. The system then computes the distribution of the times the vehicle spends at different locations on said route based at least in part on the corrected location and associated time. The system then outputs the distribution on a computer screen.
