Abstract

An approach is provided to process communication information for determining a possible correction-offset to location information of a user. A location verification platform may process and/or facilitate a processing of communication information associated with at least one user device. The location verification platform may also determine a current geo-location of the at least one user device based, at least in part, on the communication information. Further, the location verification platform may determine an accuracy of the current geo-location based, at least in part, on a comparison of the current geo-location with contextual location information associated with the current geo-location. Furthermore, the location verification platform may determine a correction-offset to the current geo-location based, at least in part, on an accuracy threshold.
