Abstract: The abounding dependence of people on mobile devices and ‘staying connected’ produces a valuable by-product for collection and interpretation of passive and dynamic location-based data from cellular networks, private and micro-networks as well as social platforms. Where traditional tools such as human-counters and/or static hardware deployments are used to determine traffic for a geographic region or point of interest, the disclosed describes a system that collects, aggregates and profiles bulk, geo-spatial mobility data from carrier networks, social media networks and distributed micro-networks (commercial centers, stadiums, etc.) for marketing and security applications.
