Where does safegraph source their gps data? Is it too expensive for a lone open source programmer to have a crack at it? I'd love to push some through tensorflow for mostly fun and a slim chance at profit.
- rch 10y agoNo kidding - my first thought as well. I've seen foot-traffic datasets for retail site selection, and Foursquare has some products, but this looks different. There is a lot of profit in site selection.
- nl 10y agoIt's possible this isn't GPS data, but SafeGraph sources it from cell towers. I used to have links to some cell provider pages selling this data, but they have all disappeared. You can still find the APIs though, eg https://github.com/RestComm/gmlc https://github.com/RestComm/gmlc
