An approach is provided for providing contemporaneous traces of user movement for algorithms and methods of location-based applications and/or services. The location traces platform determines a request, from one or more applications, for location information associated with at least one device. The location traces platform determines one or more location traces associated with the at least one device, wherein the one or more location traces represent at least a portion of a movement history associated with the at least one device. The location traces platform causes, at least in part, a return of the one or more location traces, one or more service parameters, one or more service suggestions, or a combination thereof to the one or more applications in response to the request. |
