A device receives global navigation satellite system coordinates associated with a mobile user device, and determines a direction of travel of the mobile user device based on the global navigation satellite system coordinates. The device creates a user-defined path based on a user-defined starting point, a user-defined destination point, and one or more user-defined intermediate points received from the mobile user device, and receives, from the mobile user device, a search request for points of interest in one of the direction of travel or along the user-defined path. The device further determines, based on the search request, one or more points of interest in the direction of travel or along the user-defined path, and provides, to the mobile user device, the determined one or more points of interest in the direction of travel or along the user-defined path. |

1. A method comprising:
receiving, by a computing device, global positioning system (GPS) coordinates associated with a mobile device; determining, by the computing device, a direction of travel of the mobile device based on the GPS coordinates; providing, by the computing device and to the mobile device, a drop-down menu to be used to input a direction in which to search for one or more points of interest; receiving, by the computing device and from the mobile device, information identifying a selection of a forward direction, for the direction, from the drop-down menu,
the information identifying the selection of the forward direction including a search request for the one or more points of interest,the search request including a request for the one or more points of interest to be within a first distance from the mobile device in the forward direction of the direction of travel and for the one or more points of interest to be within a second distance from the mobile device that is a radius from the forward direction of the direction of travel, andthe first distance being different from the second distance; comparing, by the computing device, the search request to a database of points of interest; generating, by the computing device, search results associated with points of interest based on the comparing; filtering, by the computing device, the search results to one or more search results associated with the one or more points of interest that are within the first distance from the mobile device in the forward direction of the direction of travel and within the second distance from the mobile device that is the radius from the forward direction of the direction of travel; and providing, to the mobile device and based on the one or more search results, information regarding the one or more points of interest. |
