Systems and methods including a database storing the identifiers of cells representing residential parcels of real estate properties. Mobile devices determine the coordinates of their locations during a period of time using a location determination system, such as a global positioning system. The coordinates are converted to cell identifiers to look up corresponding residential parcels that have been visited by the mobile devices. A server generates a visitation data set for each residential parcel visited by each mobile device, including different types of frequencies of the mobile device visiting the residential parcel (e.g., night, weekend). A server filters the residential parcels based on visitation frequencies to identify home candidates and then further filters the home candidates based on the count of mobile devices having the home candidates. A home parcel, and thus its address, is identified from the filtered home candidate(s) for each mobile device. |

1. A computing device, comprising:
at least one microprocessor; and memory storing instructions configured to instruct the at least one microprocessor to:
store location data of a mobile device, the location data specifying, for each respective time instance of a plurality of time instances in a period of time, a respective location of the mobile device determined by a position determination unit of the mobile device; andidentify a location of a home of a user of the mobile device, by:
identifying, for the respective location of the mobile device at the respective time instance, a respective region that has a predefined boundary and contains the respective location, wherein locations specified in the location data are contained within a plurality of regions containing the locations;determining, for the respective location of the mobile device at the respective time instance, a visitation type, wherein the locations specified in the location data have a plurality of different visitation types;identifying, from the plurality of regions visited by the respective mobile device, a plurality of region candidates for the home of the user of the mobile device;computing, for each of the region candidates, a plurality of visitation frequencies corresponding to the plurality of different visitation types respectively;computing, for each of the region candidates, a score based at least in part on the plurality of visitation frequencies, wherein the plurality of region candidates have a plurality of scores respectively; andselecting, from the plurality of region candidates based on the plurality of scores, a home region as the home of the user. |
