In frequent geographic pattern mining a large amount of patterns is well known a priori. This paper presents a novel approach for mining frequent geographic patterns without associations that are previously known as non-interesting. Geographic dependences are eliminated during the frequent set generation using prior knowledge. After the dependence elimination maximal generalized frequent sets are computed to remove redundant frequent sets. Experimental results show a significant reduction of both the number of frequent sets and the computational time for mining maximal frequent geographic patterns.
