Abstract

A method for identifying and locating at least one relevant location visited by at least one individual within a geographical area served by a wireless telecommunication network. The method includes: identifying and clustering events that occurred within a predefined distance from each other and having a similar probability, computing a weight value for each cluster of events identified, comparing the weight value with a threshold weight value, if the weight value is equal to, or greater than, the threshold weight value, identifying the relevant location as belonging to a selected typology of relevant location, and providing an indication of the position of the at least one relevant location based on recorded position data of the events of the cluster, or if the weight value is lower than the threshold weight value, identifying the relevant location as not belonging to the selected typology of relevant location.
