Abstract

In a method for identifying the parking status of a vehicle, navigation data for a vehicle is recorded that includes at least some GPS navigation data originating from communication with GPS satellites. The vehicle is identified as being parked in an enclosed structure for a parking event if the navigation data does not include GPS navigation data associated with the parking event.
