  • Publication number: 20230258470
    Abstract: An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a global positioning system (GPS) module, a communication module, and a processor functionally connected to the GPS module and the communication module. The processor is configured to obtain second location information by refining the first location information, when the second location information is first sensitive information, filter the second location, and when the second location information is not the first sensitive information, convert the second location information into point-of-interest (POI) information on the basis of a mapping table, when the POI information is second sensitive information, filter the POI information, when the POI information is not the second sensitive information, transmit the POI information to an external electronic device through the communication module, and receive update information from the external electronic device in response to the transmission of the POI information.
