A method, system and computer program for detecting and displaying a pers on's activity-travel pattern over time and space is provided. Person-based l ocation data is acquired by a personal communication device and processed in accordance with an algorithm. The invention goes beyond applications that f ocus on the detection of the current location of the user, but rather the en hanced knowledge of the users current, past, and likely future activities an d their multi¬ dimensional attributes. The present invention can be implemen ted on common hardware and is easily accessible via web-based interfaces and reporting, making various applications achievable at very low cost.
