Groups surrounding a present geo-spatial location of a mobile device

摘要

A method, apparatus, and system of interaction between groups surrounding a present geo-spatial location of a mobile device are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method of a geo-spatial groups server includes verifying a particular user based on a verification code of the particular user placed through a mobile device communicatively coupled to the geo-spatial groups server. The method creates a group tied to geo-spatial vicinity surrounding a current geo-spatial location of the mobile device. The method associates a name identifier to the group and also permits a different user in the geo-spatial vicinity surrounding the current geo-spatial location of the mobile device to access the group. Further, the method automatically denies a requester user access to the group when the requestor user is outside an outer boundary of the geo-spatial vicinity surrounding the current geo-spatial location of the mobile device.

1. A method of a geo-spatial groups server, comprising:
the geo-spatial groups server and a processor; verifying a particular user based on a verification code of the particular user placed through a mobile device communicatively coupled to the geo-spatial groups server; creating a group tied to a geo-spatial vicinity surrounding a current geo-spatial location of the mobile device; associating a name identifier to the group; permitting a different user in the geo-spatial vicinity surrounding the current geo-spatial location of the mobile device to access the group; automatically denying a requester user access to the group when the requester user is outside an outer boundary of the geo-spatial vicinity surrounding the current geo-spatial location of the mobile device; generating an access pin of the group; permitting the different user to enter the access pin to access the group even when the different user is not in a geo-spatial vicinity surrounding the group tied to the geo-spatial vicinity when the group is a public group; permitting the different user to enter the access pin to find the group even when the different user is not in the geo-spatial vicinity surrounding the group tied to the geo-spatial vicinity when the group is a private group, responsive to the particular user and any number of other users and individuals that have downloaded an application associated with the geo-spatial groups server to add each other to respective contact lists in mobile devices thereof when each user depresses a huddle indicator on the respective mobile devices thereof simultaneously and is in a maximum five yard distance from each other; and automatically permitting an administrator user to add the other users that have depressed a fast join button on the application when the other users are in the maximum five yard distance from a location of the administrator user.
