Abstract

A method for dynamically providing location-based services, including receiving at least one user input indicating a request for a suggested point of interest; and generating a query based on the user input and a time reference. In addition, the generated query can be processed to identify a plurality of points of interest. The points of interest can be presented to a user.

Claims (21)

1. A method for dynamically providing location-based services, comprising:

receiving at least one user input indicating a request for a suggested point of interest;

by a controller, generating a query based on the user input and a time reference;

processing the generated query to identify a plurality of points of interest; and

presenting the points of interest to a user.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

identifying a particular mode of transportation used by the user, wherein generating the query is further based on the particular mode of transportation.

3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

identifying a particular route traveled by the user, wherein generating the query is further based on the particular route.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the time reference is particular time of day, a particular day of a week, a particular day of a month, or a particular day of a year.

5. A system that dynamically provides location-based services, comprising:

a controller configured to:

receive at least one user input indicating a request for a suggested point of interest;

generate a query based on the user input and a time reference;

process the generated query to identify a plurality of points of interest; and

present the points of interest to a user.

6. The system of claim 5 , wherein the controller further is configured to:

identify a particular mode of transportation used by the user, wherein generating the query is further based on the particular mode of transportation.

7. The system of claim 5 , wherein the controller further is configured to:

identify a particular route traveled by the user, wherein generating the query is further based on the particular route.

8. The system of claim 5 , wherein the time reference is particular time of day, a particular day of a week, a particular day of a month, or a particular day of a year.
