First Claim
1. A method for dynamic collision avoidance of graphical and textual elements on a display, the method comprising:
- displaying an aerial digital photograph of a portion of the golf course on a viewport of a golf GPS device, the portion of the golf course including a plurality of elements and the plurality of elements including at least one element of text, wherein the GPS device comprises a GPS component, a memory for storing a plurality of aerial digital photographs of a golf course, a user input for inputting a plurality of location points on an aerial digital photograph of the plurality of aerial digital photographs displayed on the display, and a processor, wherein the viewport of the golf GPS device can operate in a normal, zoom-out and zoom-in state;
checking a right boundary of an image displayed on the viewport;
determining if there is a collision between a plurality of elements at the right boundary;
resolving for collision between the plurality of elements at the right boundary including omitting an element if necessary;
determining if there is an overlap of a plurality of rectangles;
resolving for collision between the plurality of rectangles;
checking an upper boundary of the image displayed on the viewport;
determining if there is a collision between a plurality of elements at the upper boundary;
resolving for collision between the plurality of elements at the upper boundary including omitting an element if necessary;
checking a lower boundary of the image displayed on the viewport;
determining if there is a collision between a plurality of elements at the lower boundary;
resolving for collision between the plurality of elements at the lower boundary including omitting an element if necessary; and
displaying the image on the viewport without a collision of the plurality of elements.

Abstract
A method for dynamic collision avoidance of graphical and textual elements on a display is disclosed. The method comprises displaying an aerial image of a portion of the golf course on a viewport of a golf GPS device, wherein the GPS device comprises a GPS component, a memory for storing a plurality of aerial images of a golf course, and a user input. The method further comprises determining the location of the at least one element of texts on the display in positional relation to the plurality of elements on the display, determining if there is a collision of elements on the display, and adjusting the texts element to avoid collision.
