Publication number: 20250130054Abstract: Implementations include classifying vehicle trips as similar to previous trips based on location information of a vehicle received from a location device. Unique tile identifiers of the trip, each corresponding to a geographic area and the location information, may be determined and used to generate a fingerprint of the trip. The derived trip fingerprint of the trip information may be compared to stored fingerprints of one or more previously received trips to determine if the new trip is similar to one or more of the previous trips. In one instance, information or data of a new trip may be adjusted based on previous trip data. For example, aspects of the new trip or the previous trip may be updated with information or data of a previous trip fi the new trip and the previous trip are similar.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 26, 2024Publication date: April 24, 2025Applicant: Allstate Insurance CompanyInventor: Eric M.
