Representing investment options as travel options on a map
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- receiving, by a computing system, a first set of input;
determining, by the computing system and based on the first set of input, a geographical region, a plurality of investment parameters, and an investment goal, wherein the plurality of investment parameters include an initial investment amount, a periodic investment amount, and an investment goal timeframe;
determining, by the computing system using a Markov chain analysis based on the plurality of investment parameters and the investment goal, a plurality of investment options for achieving the investment goal, wherein each of the plurality of investment options includes an investment option timeframe;
generating, by the computing system, a travel map of the geographical region that assigns each of the investment options of the plurality of investment options to a corresponding travel vehicle and a corresponding travel path from a starting location to a destination location within the geographical region,wherein for each of the plurality of investment options, the corresponding travel vehicle and the corresponding travel path are chosen to represent a mode of travel where travel safety corresponds to investment safety, travel speed corresponds to investment reward, and travel distance corresponds to investment timeframe, andwherein, for each of the plurality of investment options, the corresponding travel path from the starting location to the destination location is assigned based on topological ordering of possible paths;
displaying, by the computing system and through a user interface, the travel map;
receiving, by the computing system, a second set of input indicating interaction with the travel map;
adjusting, by the computing system and based on the second set of input, one or more of the plurality of investment parameters;
determining, by the computing system and based on the one or more adjusted investment parameters, one or more revised investment options;
generating, by the computing system, a revised travel map of the geographical region that assigns each of the one or more revised investment options to a revised set of travel options within the geographical region;
updating the travel map, by the computing system, to dynamically display on the user interface the revised travel map;
receiving, by the computing system, a third set of input selecting one of the revised set of travel options; and
identifying, by the computing system and based on the third set of input selecting one of the revised set of travel options, a selected investment option.

Abstract
A system comprising at least one processor; and at least one storage device. The storage device(s) store instructions that, when executed, configure the at least one processor to: receive input, determine, based on the input, a geographical region, a plurality of investment parameters, and an investment goal, determine, based on the plurality of investment parameters and the investment goal, a plurality of investment options for achieving the investment goal, generate a travel map of the geographical region that relates each of the investment options of the plurality of investment options to a corresponding vehicle and a corresponding path from a starting location to a destination location within the geographical region, and output, for display, the travel map.
