METHOD, APPARATUS, AND SYSTEM FOR DETERMINING A CONFIDENCE LEVEL FOR MAP FEATURE IDENTIFICATION IN A MAP APPLICATION

An approach is provided for determining a confidence level for map feature identification in a map application. The approach involves, for instance, presenting an image of a map feature in a user interface of a device. The image is initially presented with a content of the image obscured from view. The approach also involves progressively un-obscuring the image in the user interface until an input identifying the map feature is received from a user via the user interface. The approach further involves determining a percentage of the image that is visible at a time the input is received from the user. The approach further involves personalizing an application to the user based on the feature identification confidence level.
