Abstract
An approach for enabling contextual categories to be associated and scored in connection with a defined geographic region is described. An affinity determination platform identifies an anomaly in a score associated with at least one contextual category of a defined geographic region based on information related to the points-of-interest. The affinity determination platform generates an updated score to associate with the at least one contextual category based on the analysis of verification information related to the defined geographical region and associates the updated score with the contextual category.
