A route correlation method, an identification method, and a route correlation system determine an implicit relationship between two entities, i.e. two users with mobile devices, following dynamic, but similar paths or routes, but which otherwise lack an explicit relationship. Through this implicit relationship, the identity of one entity can be known to another. The route correlation method includes determining a route for a first mobile device, determining a route for each of a plurality of mobile devices, correlating the route for each of the plurality of mobile devices with the route for the first mobile device, identifying each of the plurality of mobile devices with their associated routes matching the route of the first mobile device, and associating each mobile device with an entity. |
