Abstract

Initial trajectory data that provides an initial description of an approximate trajectory of a device during a time period, and correction data that indicates a location of the device outside the approximate trajectory of the device within the time period, are received. A modified trajectory data that provides a modified description of a corrected trajectory of the device is generated. In particular, terms to express (i) location constraints that limit deformation of the approximate trajectory of the device and (ii) a modification constraint that limits departure of the corrected trajectory of the device from the location indicated by the correction data are generated, and the initial description of the approximate trajectory of the device is modified using the generated terms.
