8. The vehicle-based media system of claim 7 , wherein:
identifying reference audio content that has at least the threshold extent of similarity with the received audio content comprises identifying reference audio content that has at least the threshold extent of similarity with the received secondary audio content.
9. The vehicle-based media system of claim 8 , wherein identifying the geographic location associated with the identified reference audio content comprises identifying a geographic location related to particular advertisement content of the secondary audio content.
10. The vehicle-based media system of claim 1 , wherein identifying the reference audio content that has at least the threshold extent of similarity with the received audio content comprises:
generating audio fingerprint data of the received audio content;
comparing the generated audio fingerprint data to a plurality of reference audio fingerprint items; and
determining that a particular reference audio fingerprint item of the plurality of reference audio fingerprint items has at least the threshold extent of similarity with the generated audio fingerprint data.
11. A non-transitory, computer-readable medium, having stored thereon program instructions that, upon execution by a vehicle-based media system, cause the vehicle-based media system to perform a set of operations comprising:
receiving audio content;
identifying reference audio content that has at least a threshold extent of similarity with the received audio content;
identifying a geographic location associated with the identified reference audio content; and
based at least on the identified geographic location associated with the identified reference audio content, outputting, via a user interface of the vehicle-based media system, advertising content associated with the identified geographic location.
12. The non-transitory, computer-readable medium of claim 11 , wherein the set of operations further comprise outputting, via the user interface of the vehicle-based media system, a prompt to navigate to the identified geographic location.
13. The non-transitory, computer-readable medium of claim 12 , wherein the set of operations further comprises:
receiving, via the user interface of the vehicle-based media system, a selection of the prompt to navigate to the identified geographic location; and
in response to receiving the selection of the prompt, outputting, via the user interface of the vehicle-based media system, directions for navigating to the identified geographic location.
14. The non-transitory, computer-readable medium of claim 13 , wherein the identified geographic location associated with the identified reference audio content is a first geographic location, wherein the set of operations further comprises determining a second geographic location associated with the vehicle-based media system.
15. The non-transitory, computer-readable medium of claim 14 , wherein the set of operations further comprise outputting, via the user interface of the vehicle-based media system, a prompt to navigate to the identified geographic location, wherein outputting the prompt to navigate to the identified geographic location comprises outputting a prompt to navigate to the first geographic location based on the first geographic location being within a threshold proximity of the second geographic location.
16. The non-transitory, computer-readable medium of claim 14 , wherein determining the second geographic location associated with the vehicle-based media system comprises determining (i) a current geographic location of the vehicle-based media system, (ii) a destined geographic location of the vehicle-based media system, or (iii) a geographic location on a route between the current geographic location of the vehicle-based media system and the destined geographic location of the vehicle-based media system.
