Abstract
A computing device includes a display screen and is configured to generate and display an interactive map identifying at least one route segment. The route segment may be generated in view of a current location of the computing device and at least one of arises within a destination area, and/or connects the current location of the computing device with at least one destination or a service provider. The computing device may be configured to receive a selection of at least one of a route segment, a destination area, a destination, and a service provider and to activate at least one additional process for execution thereby. One additional process may include activating a navigation module configured to generate directions between the current location and the selection. The additional process may include outputting the directions in a humanly perceptible format. A route segment may be based on historical data.
