Abstract
Example methods, apparatus, and articles of manufacture to capture and compress telematics data are disclosed herein. An example computer-implemented method, executed by a processor, to represent telematics data includes identifying, with the processor, a physical intersection of roads, identifying, with the processor, virtual lines crossing the roads, assigning, with the processor, ordinals to the virtual lines, representing, with the processor, a physical traversal through the physical intersection captured in first telematics data by a pair of the ordinals, and storing the pair of the ordinals in second compressed telematics data.
Claims20
A computer-implemented method, executed by a processor, to represent telematics data, the method comprising:
- generating, with the processor, a series of travel segments representing a trip using simplified straight lines based on first telematics data including a series of points representing the trip;
- representing, with the processor, a physical traversal through a physical intersection of roads captured in the first telematics data by a pair of ordinals determined based on the series of travel segments, wherein each ordinal represents a virtual line crossing a respective road of the physical intersection;
- and
- storing the pair of the ordinals in second compressed telematics data.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium comprising instructions that, when executed, cause a machine to:
- generate a series of travel segments representing a trip using simplified straight lines based on first telematics data including a series of points representing the trip;
- represent a physical traversal through a physical intersection of roads captured in the first telematics data by a pair of ordinals determined based on the series of travel segments, wherein each ordinal represents a virtual line crossing a respective road of the physical intersection;
- and
- store the pair of the ordinals in second compressed telematics data.
