Abstract

Systems and methods for improving accuracy of geographic position data are provided. A networked system mines ticket data from content of the ticket. Based on the ticket data, a determination is made that the ticket indicates an issue with a trip involving a point of interest (POI). The networked system extracts trip data from a trip log corresponding to the trip involving the POI, and identifies, from a data storage, stored attributes of the POI. The networked system analyzes the ticket data, trip data, and attributes to determine a workflow to improve accuracy of the POI, whereby the analyzing comprises determining a priority level to verify accuracy of the POI. The workflow is triggered based on the priority level to verify accuracy of the POI.
