Abstract
Methods and systems are provided for generating an electronic map display. In one implementation, a method is provided for determining a route distance based on information for a route, comparing the route distance with a distance threshold, generating a list of points of interest (POIs) when the route distance is less than the distance threshold, the list of POIs identifying POIs that are located along the route, grouping the POIs into one or more buckets based on location, calculating POI densities of the buckets based on the POIs included in each corresponding bucket, ranking the buckets based on the POI densities, providing POI information associated with the POIs included in the ranked buckets, wherein the POI information is provided based on the ranking of the buckets, and generating an electronic map display with the POI information.

21. A computer-implemented method comprising the following operations performed by at least one processor:
-
determining a location of a reference point along a route requested by a user; assigning a spatial identifier to the reference point; defining a search area for the spatial identifier; identifying points-of-interest (POIs) within the search area; ranking the POIs; and providing instructions to display the ranked POIs on a device of the user. - View Dependent Claims (22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29)

30. A computer-readable storage medium storing a set of instructions which, when executed by at least one processor, causes the processor to:
-
determine a location of a reference point along a route requested by a user; assign a spatial identifier to the reference point; define a search area for the spatial identifier; identify points-of-interest (POIs) within the search area; rank the POIs; and provide instructions to display the ranked POIs on a device of the user. - View Dependent Claims (31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38)

39. A system for generating an electronic map display, the system comprising:
-
a computer storage that stores a set of instructions; an input device for receiving input from a user; a display device for displaying the electronic map display; and at least one processor that executes the set of instructions to; determine a location of a reference point along a route requested by the user; assign a spatial identifier to the reference point; define a search area for the spatial identifier; identify points-of-interest (POIs) within the search area; rank the POIs; and provide instructions to display the ranked POIs on the display device.
