Abstract
An apparatus receives information including data for a node of a communication network and an indication of a location for which the data is valid. The received information is evaluated in view of information that is stored for the node. The stored information may include data for the node and an indication of a mapping of the data to grid points of a grid, and each grid point may represent a particular location. The apparatus determines, in response to the evaluation, whether to use the received information for updating the stored information.
Claims21
1-28. (canceled)
A method comprising at an apparatus:
- receiving information including data for a node of a communication network and an indication of a location for which the data is valid;
- evaluating the received information at least in view of information that is stored for the node, the stored information including at least data for the node and an indication of a mapping of the data to grid points of a grid, and each grid point representing a particular location;
- and
- determining, in response to the evaluation, whether to use the received information for updating the stored information.
An apparatus comprising at least one processor and at least one memory including computer program code, the at least one memory and the computer program code configured to, with the at least one processor, cause an apparatus at least to perform:
- receive information including data for a node of a communication network and an indication of a location for which the data is valid;
- evaluate the received information at least in view of information that is stored for the node, the stored information including at least data for the node and an indication of a mapping of the data to grid points of a grid, and each grid point representing a particular location;
- and
- determine, in response to the evaluation, whether to use the received information for updating the stored information.
A non-transitory computer readable storage medium in which computer program code is stored, the computer program code when executed by a processor causing an apparatus to perform the following:
- receive information including data for a node of a communication network and an indication of a location for which the data is valid;
- evaluate the received information at least in view of information that is stored for the node, the stored information including at least data for the node and an indication of a mapping of the data to grid points of a grid, and each grid point representing a particular location;
- and
- determine, in response to the evaluation, whether to use the received information for updating the stored information.
