Abstract

Location traces are highly informative because of their potential to infer physical activity or presence. Their prevalence has increased largely due to the rise of digital devices, their encompassed location-based services and other positioning technologies (Raubal et al., 2004). However, there is little research that explores and supports their exploitation, which hampers the confidence that can be placed in it. Location traces are indeed subject to uncertainty and errors, notably in their production and exploitation processes. This article aims to shed some light on the uncertainty and errors associated with smartphone location traces and calls for research to be developed on that topic. Several empirical examples are developed throughout the article to better illustrate these issues.

定位跟踪的不确定性和误差
位置追踪具有很高的信息量,因为它们有可能推断出物理活动或物理存在。位置追踪的普及主要得益于数字设备的兴起、基于位置的服务和其他定位技术(Raubal 等人,2004 年)。然而,很少有研究对其利用进行探讨和支持,这影响了人们对其的信心。位置痕迹确实存在不确定性和误差,尤其是在其生产和利用过程中。本文旨在阐明与智能手机位置追踪相关的不确定性和误差,并呼吁开展相关研究。为了更好地说明这些问题,文章中列举了几个经验实例。
