Abstract
A system and method for establishing a journey destination endpoint is disclosed. The system comprises a communication module, a stop classification module and an endpoint establishment module. The communication module receives a stream of data including a first data element and a second data element from a global positioning system. The communication module receives a set of sensor data from one or more sensors. The stop classification module detects a stop for a traveling vehicle based at least in part on the stream of data and the set of sensor data. The stop classification module applies one or more metric criteria to the first data element and the second data element to determine a type of the stop. The endpoint establishment module establishes a journey destination endpoint based on the type of the stop. The endpoint establishment module associates the journey destination endpoint with retrieval identification data.
