1. A system comprising:
- a radio-frequency receiver configured to receive a first signal containing information in a data stream;
a received data stream analyzer coupled to the radio-frequency receiver and configured to detect information in said data stream;
a global position system (GPS) coupled to the received data stream analyzer, the GPS configured to determine a geographic location of the radio-frequency receiver responsive to receipt by the GPS of a signal from the received data stream analyzer; and
an information correlator coupled to the received data stream analyzer and the GPS, and configured to correlate information in the data stream to a geographic location;
wherein the information correlator is configured to select a prior geographic location of the radio-frequency receiver from a database of geographic locations whereat song titles were received by the radio-frequency receiver.

Abstract
Songs titles and song artists or other content received on an HD-radio are cross-referenced to one or more geographic locations where they were heard on the radio by identifying a song title or artist in the HD radio data stream and instructing a global positioning system navigation unit to contemporaneously determine its location. The determined location and song title and/or artist are cross-referenced to each other in a list or database. A touch-sensitive display device is configured to display the location or portion of a route where a listened-to song was heard. Song titles and/or artists can be determined by tactile selection of portions of a route displayed on the map.
