1. A method comprising facilitating a processing of and/or processing (1) data and/or (2) information and/or (3) at least one signal, the (1) data and/or (2) information and/or (3) at least one signal based, at least in part, on the following:
- a request from a device for one or more location stamps;
a processing of a hierarchy of one or more policies to determine one or more candidate location stamps in response to the request;
at least one determination of a location associated with the device;
a creation of a cache history comprising, at least in part, one or more previously used location stamps associated with the location;
a creation of a personal history based, at least in part, on the cache history, one or more previously created cache histories, or a combination thereof; and
a presentation of the one or more candidate location stamps at a user interface,wherein the one or more policies cause, at least in part, a determination of the one or more candidate location stamps based, at least in part, on the cache history, the personal history, a reverse geocoding, a point-of-interest determination, a regional determination, or a combination thereof associated with the device.

Abstract
An approach for generating location stamps in response to a request from a device is presented. A location stamping platform receives a request from a device for one or more location stamps. The location stamping platform then processes and/or facilitates a processing of a hierarchy of one or more policies to determine one or more candidate location stamps in response to the request.

10. An apparatus comprising:
-
at least one processor; and at least one memory including computer program code for one or more programs, the at least one memory and the computer program code configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus to perform at least the following, receive a request from a device for one or more location stamps; process and/or facilitate a processing of a hierarchy of one or more policies to determine one or more candidate location stamps in response to the request; determine a location associated with the device; cause, at least in part, a creation of a cache history comprising, at least in part, one or more previously used location stamps associated with the location; cause, at least in part, a creation of a personal history based, at least in part, on the cache history, one or more previously created cache histories, or a combination thereof; and cause, at least in part, a presentation of the one or more candidate location stamps at a user interface, wherein the one or more policies cause, at least in part, a determination of the one or more candidate location stamps based, at least in part, on the cache history, the personal history, a reverse geocoding, a point-of-interest determination, a regional determination, or a combination thereof associated with the device. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)
