This is a GPS trajectory dataset collected in (Microsoft Research Asia) GeoLife project by 165 users in a period of over two years (from April 2007 to August 2009). This dataset recoded a broad range of users¡¯ outdoor movements, including not only life routines like go home and go to work but also some entertainments and sports activities, such as shopping, sightseeing, dining, hiking, and cycling. Therefore, the dataset can be used in many research fields, such as mobility pattern mining, user activity recognition, location-based social networks, and location recommendation.
