Zusammenfassung:Provided are a computer program product, system, and method for geo-spatial analysis to determine boundaries of traffic regions and classifications of the boundaries for controlling drop-off/pick-up traffic. A determination is made of drop-off/pick-up points for vehicles in traffic regions in which vehicles dropped-off and/or picked-up passengers. Geo-spatial cluster analysis is applied to the determined drop-off/pick-up points to determine boundaries of the traffic regions having drop-off/pick-up points forming clusters of similar drop-off/pick-up point densities. A determination is made of a respective classification for each respective one of the boundaries. Each respective classification indicates a relative density of drop-off/pick-up points in its respective boundary relative to densities of drop-off/pick-up points in other one of the boundaries. Classification related information based on the determined classifications is communicated to use to control drop-off/pick-up traffic in the traffic regions.
