DISPLAYING DYNAMIC CONTENT ON A MAP BASED ON USER'S LOCATION AND SCHEDULED TASK

摘要

Graphic elements for a computer-implemented mapping system may be displayed based on scheduled task data, routine data, or other data corresponding to an application of a client computing device. The application data may include a location and a scheduled time. A user may request a map for the scheduled task location. If a difference between the request time and the scheduled task time is below a threshold, then the mapping system may display or modify graphic elements for the location that are relevant to the scheduled task. For example, a user may include appointment data for an airline flight in a calendar application of a mobile computing device. If the user requests a map of the departure airport within a short amount of time before the flight, the map may include only relevant graphic elements such as a check in counter, a security checkpoint, and a departure gate.

主权项

1. A method for displaying graphic elements on a digital map based on application data generated or received by an application executing on a client computing device, the method comprising:
sending a mapping data request from the client computing device via a network connection, the mapping data request including a geographic location and a request time; receiving, in response to the mapping data request, mapping data corresponding to the geographic location, wherein the mapping data includes a plurality of graphic elements that represent the geographic location; retrieving application data generated or received by an application executing on the client computing device, wherein the application data includes an application data time and an application data location, and the mapping data request geographic location corresponds to the application data location; determining a difference between the application data time to the request time; modifying the received mapping data based on the retrieved application data and the difference between the application data time to the request time; and displaying the modified mapping data on the client computing device.
