Patent Images
1. A method comprising:
- identifying destination information associated with a mobile device;
identifying one or more routes comprising a plurality of route progressions based on a current location of the mobile device and the destination information;
retrieving route information associated with the plurality of route progressions, the route information comprising user preferences and traffic information associated with the plurality of route progressions;
analyzing the plurality of route progressions based on the route information; and
presenting one or more routes to the user based on the analysis.

Abstract
Intelligent route guidance can include deriving one or more routes based on traffic, historical data and/or preference data associated with route progressions implicated by the one or more routes. The route guidance can provide one or more recommended routes, which can be presented to a user for navigation purposes.

13. A system comprising:
-
a destination engine operable to receive destination information; a routing engine operable to identify a plurality of routes, each route comprising a plurality of route progressions, the identification of the plurality of routes being based on a current location of a mobile device and the destination information, the routing engine being further operable to retrieve route information associated with the plurality of route progressions, the route information comprising historical information associated with the plurality of route progressions and traffic information; an analysis engine operable to analyze the plurality of route progressions based upon the route information; and a presentation engine operable to present one or more routes to a user of the mobile device based on the analysis. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27)

28. A computer-implemented method comprising:
-
storing a history comprising a plurality of routes navigated by a user, each of the plurality of routes comprising a plurality of route progressions, the history further comprising a plurality of measured times associated with each of the previous navigations of the route progressions; deriving a plurality of time metrics respectively associated with each of the plurality of route progressions based on the plurality of measured times; associating the time metrics with respective route progressions; receiving destination information; and presenting a recommended route based upon the average time associated with the plurality of route progressions comprising the recommended route. - View Dependent Claims (29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34)

35. A method comprising:
-
identifying destination information associated with a mobile device; identifying a plurality of potential routes, the potential routes comprising a plurality of route progressions and being based on a current location of the mobile device and the destination information; receiving routing information associated with the plurality of route progressions, the routing information comprising; user preferences; and traffic information associated with the plurality of route progressions; analyzing the potential routes based on the route information; and communicating one or more recommended routes to the user based on the analysis.

36. A method for determining a route between a source and a destination, comprising:
-
identifying a destination associated with a mobile device; deriving one or more prospective routes between a current location associated with the mobile device and the destination, the one or more potential routes comprising a plurality of prospective route progressions; receiving peer navigation data from one or more peer devices that have navigated any of the plurality of prospective route progressions within a previous time period; selecting a route from the one or more prospective routes based upon the peer navigation data.
