FILTERING OF DATA LAYERED ON MAPPING APPLICATIONS
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A system for layering data on a mapping application, comprising:
- an overlay component that overlays at least a portion of a first set of filtered data with at least a portion of at least a second set of filtered data;
an optimization component that applies a set operation to the overlaid portion of the first set of filtered data and the at least a second set of filtered data; and
a render component that renders data in the overlapping portion as a function of the set operation.

Abstract
Provided is a mapping application that displays detailed data information as a function of multiple sets of layered data. When portions of at least two sets of layered data overlap, a set operation is applied to the overlapping portions to create a new set of layered data. The set operation allows the sets of layered data to be modified utilizing a simple function, such as by dragging and dropping a set of layered data to a different portion of the map area. When the portions no longer overlap, the set operation is removed, rendering the sets of layered data in their original format.

10. A method for displaying layered data, comprising:
-
identifying a first set of layered data and at least a second set of layered data; applying a set operation to an intersection of the first set of layered data and the at least a second set of layered data; and displaying the intersection as a separate set of layered data based in part on the applied set operation. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)

17. A computer executable system that provides layered data in a mapping application, comprising:
-
computer implemented means for defining a first display mask and at least a second display mask; computer implemented means for determining if at least a subset of the first display mask and a subset of the second display mask create an overlapping portion; and computer implemented means for applying a set operation to the overlapping portion. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
