COMPUTERIZED SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR PROVIDING TRAVEL INFORMATION AND/OR CONTENT TO USERS

摘要

Systems and methods are disclosed for providing travel information and/or content to users. According to certain embodiments, an area of interest is calculated based on a determined location of a user traveling along a route and a relative distance of travel. The area of interest is associated with coordinates on a map and includes at least a triangular area or a radial area. At least one database is searched to identify travel information and/or content within the area of interest. The travel information and/or content is stored in the database and associated with coordinates on the map. Instructions are provided at a first point in time to electronically display the identified travel information and/or content on a device of the user. Further identified travel information and/or content is displayed to the user at subsequent points in time as the user travels along the route.

主权项

1. A computer-implemented method for providing travel information and/or content to a user, the method comprising the following operations performed by one or more processors:
determining a location of a user traveling along a route; calculating an area of interest based on the location of the user and a relative distance of travel, the area of interest being associated with coordinates on a map and including at least one of a triangular area or a radial area; searching at least one database to identify travel information and/or content within the area of interest, the travel information and/or content being stored in the database and associated with coordinates on the map; providing, at a first point in time, instructions to electronically display the identified travel information and/or content on a device of the user; and automatically repeating, at subsequent points in time, the preceding operations in order to electronically display further identified travel information and/or content to the user as the user travels along the route.
