The invention discloses a method for estimating the occupational and residential 
population characteristics based on 
mobile phone signaling, and the method comprises the steps: S1), obtaining the signaling data of a target city, calculating a 
Geohash character string corresponding to a signaling 
record, and carrying out the sorting according to the time; S2) eliminating ping-pong and drift signaling records, and combining adjacent same 
Geohash grids to obtain resident model data; S3) selecting data of the working time and the 
night sleep period, and judging whether the working and living conditions are met or not to obtain working and living model data; S4) 
processing the 
mobile service user data table and the real-name 
system width table provided by the operator to obtain a user data table; S5) matching the user data table with the job-house model data to obtain job-house user basic 
information model data; and S6) carrying out 
statistical analysis on the corresponding characteristicsof the occupational and residential 
population, and relatively accurately identifying the occupational and residential places of the users and obtaining the characteristics of the occupational and residential 
population by utilizing 
mobile phone signaling data and a user data table provided by an operator, so that the 
time cost and the human resources are saved compared with a traditional survey way.
