Abstract
Techniques are disclosed for implementing digital traffic data for analysis. In some examples, a telecommunications network determines an identity of a user associated with a user device that communicates with the telecommunications network. The telecommunications network identifies a physical location of the user device based on the user device communicating with a first transceiver of the telecommunications network. Then, the telecommunications network determines that the physical location of the user device corresponds to a first commercial location, and stores an indication that the user has visited the first commercial location.
Claims18
A computer-implemented method, comprising:
- determining a home location of a user based at least on a user device communicating with a transceiver of a telecommunications network;
- determining that the user device's physical movements correspond to the user device being located at a first commercial location, based at least on the user device communicating with the transceiver of the telecommunications network;
- determining an identity of a user associated with the user device;
- generating a route traveled by the user device from the home location to the first commercial location;
- determining an amount of time that the user spends in a place within the first commercial location based at least on the user device communicating with at least the transceiver of a plurality of transceivers;
- determining how to stock inventory at the place within the first commercial location based at least on the amount of time that the user spends in the place;
- determining if a second commercial location is located along the route traveled by the user device;
- if the second commercial location is along the route traveled by the user device, indicating that the user has visited the first commercial location but not the second commercial location;
- and
- outputting data indicating how to stock the inventory at the place within the first commercial location.

A system, comprising:
- at least one processor;
- and
- at least one memory communicatively coupled to the at least one processor, the at least one memory bearing processor-executable instructions that, upon execution by the at least one processor, cause the system at least to:
- determine a home location of a user based at least on a user device communicating with a transceiver of a telecommunications network;
- determine that the user device's physical movements correspond to the user device being located at a first commercial location, based at least on the user device communicating with the transceiver of the telecommunications network;
- determine an identity of a user associated with the user device;
- generate a route traveled by the user device from the home location to the first commercial location;
- determine an amount of time that the user spends in a place within the first commercial location based at least on the user device communicating with at least the transceiver of a plurality of transceivers;
- determine how to stock inventory at the place within the first commercial location based at least on the amount of time that the user spends in the place determine if a second commercial location is located along the route traveled by the user device;
- if the second commercial location is along the route traveled by the user device, indicate that the user has visited the first commercial location but not the second commercial location;
- and
- output data indicating how to stock the inventory at the place within the first commercial location.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium, bearing computer-executable instructions that, when executed upon a computing device, cause the computing device at least to:
- determine a home location of a user based at least on a user device communicating with a transceiver of a telecommunications network;
- determine that the user device's physical movements correspond to the user device being located at a first commercial location, based at least on the user device communicating with the transceiver of the telecommunications network;
- determine an identity of a user associated with the user device;
- generate a route traveled by the user device from the home location to the first commercial location;
- determine an amount of time that the user spends in a place within the first commercial location based at least on the user device communicating with at least the transceiver of a plurality of transceivers;
- determine how to stock inventory at the place within the first commercial location based at least on the amount of time that the user spends in the place determine if a second commercial location is located along the route traveled by the user device;
- if the second commercial location is along the route traveled by the user device, indicate that the user has visited the first commercial location but not the second commercial location;
- and
- output data indicating how to stock the inventory at the place within the first commercial location.
