Abstract

A computer system may use machine learning to determine functional zones within a geographical region. The computer system may determine position data and functional data for locations within a geographical region. The computer system may use machine learning to determine functional zones with a two-stage clustering approach. During the first stage, the computer system may determine geoclusters by clustering locations based on the position data. During the second stage, the computer system may determine functional zones by clustering the geoclusters based on the functional data.
