Original Abstract Submitted

The technology generally relates to a method for predicting travel metrics for a user for a predetermined time period based on a starting location and the user's travel history. The predicted travel metrics may include, for example, a time of travel, a distance traveled, travel expenses, carbon footprint, etc. The travel history may be based on location information detected by a device having location sensors. The location information may be used to identify relevant destinations frequented by the user and routine trips completed by the user. The identified destinations and trips may be used to determine predicted travel metrics.
