METHOD, APPARATUS, AND SYSTEM FOR MAPPING BASED ON A DETECTED PEDESTRIAN TYPE

An approach is provided for mapping based on pedestrian type. The approach, for instance, involves processing image data to a determine the pedestrian type of at least one pedestrian depicted in the image data. The approach also involves determining a classification of a geographic zone based on the detected pedestrian type. The approach further involves generating a digital map representation of the geographic zone based on the classification.
