Abstract

The subject technology provides for route identification and clustering for real-time mapping. Various clustering techniques can identify groupings of relevant prior routes that can later be mapped against a current route. Filtering and matching techniques can be applied to identify and cluster prior routes. Tracked activity can also be compared against applicable prior activities to provide movement metrics and real-time comparisons between current and one or more recorded activities.
