Abstract
Systems and methods for determining semantic place names from one or more location reports received from a user device are provided. High quality visits for a candidate semantic place location from a plurality of previously obtained location reports can be aggregated and used to generate a point cloud for the semantic place location. A high quality visit can correspond to a visit by a device that is determined to be associated with a candidate semantic place location with greater likelihood relative to a plurality of other candidate semantic place locations. Data associated with one or more point clouds can be accessed and used to support determinations of semantic place name for one or more location reports. In example embodiments, the semantic place name can be stored as part of a location history and/or provided for display in a user interface presented on a display device.
