The electronic map source acquires a plurality of POI data snippets, each POI data snippet including respective information about a respective POI. The electronic map source calculates, using at least one weight function, a POI-POI weight score for each pair of POI data snippets from among the plurality of POI data snippets. The electronic map source generates a POI score map including the pairs of POI data snippets arranged in a descending order of corresponding POI-POI weight scores. The electronic map source clusters the POI data snippets into one or more POI clusters, the clustering including controlling which pairs of POI data snippets are clustered into POI clusters based on the order of the pairs of POI data snippets in the POI score map. The electronic map source updates POI information in the electronic map data based on information from the POI clusters.",
