1. A method for managing a region tag, comprising:
acquiring region identifier information of a geographic region;
acquiring an attribute evaluation tag of the geographic region by a user whose geographic position is in the geographic region and a time identifier of the attribute evaluation tag;
integrating the region identifier information, the attribute evaluation tag, and the time identifier thereof into a region tag of the geographic region;
clustering one or more region tags to generate a region time period tag of the geographic region for a time period based on that each of the one or more region tags comprises the region identifier information of the geographic region and a time identifier within the time period, wherein the region time period tag of the geographic region for the time period corresponds to a function attribute of the geographic region for the time period, the function attribute of the geographic region is descriptive of functions that the geographic region serves, the function attribute of the geographic region comprises a first function attribute of the geographic region for a first time period and a second function attribute of the geographic region for a second time period, the first function attribute is different than the second function attribute, and the first time period is different than the second time period; and
outputting one or more region time period tags of the geographic region for one or more time periods, respectively.
