1. A method comprising:
- determining that a marker is colliding with another marker simultaneously displayed in a map based on an overlap area of the marker with the another marker;
automatically creating a group pointer that replaces the marker and the another marker on the map; and
generating a view of the marker and the another marker when a user selects the group pointer.

Abstract
A method, apparatus, and system of multi-occupant structure in a geo-spatial environment are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method includes determining that a marker (e.g., associated with a profile of a user) is colliding with another marker simultaneously displayed in a map based on an overlap area of the marker with the another marker, automatically creating a group pointer that replaces the marker and the another marker on the map and generating a view of the marker and the another marker when a user (e.g., of the geo-spatial environment) selects the group pointer.

16. A system comprising:
-
a structure having a plurality of occupants; a geo-spatial environment to represent the structure in a map; and a pointer in the geo-spatial environment to simultaneously represent the plurality of occupants such that the pointer enables a user to get access to a set of profiles associated with each of the plurality of occupants of the structure through the pointer. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18)

19. A method comprising:
-
placing a set of markers in a map; simultaneously displaying the set of markers with each other in the map based on a location data associated with each of the set of markers; creating a pointer when different ones of the set of markers overlap with each other because of having at least one of a same location data and an adjacent location data with each other; and customizing the pointer based on at least one of a neighborhood and relationship characteristic between the different ones of the set of overlapping markers. - View Dependent Claims (20)
