Displaying representative images in a visual mapping system
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A computing system, comprising:
- a processor;
a memory device including instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the computing system to;
receive a search request relating to a display of a geographic location;
determine, in response to the search request, a plurality of geographically adjacent images corresponding to the geographic location;
stitch together at least a portion of the plurality of geographically adjacent images to provide a three-hundred and sixty degree view of a region surrounding the geographic location, the region being centered proximate the geographic location;
receive a selection of at least one interactive element; and
cause a change in display of the three-hundred and sixty degree view of the region surrounding the geographic location.

6. A computer-implemented method, comprising:
-
receiving a search request relating to a display of a geographic location; determining, in response to the search request, a plurality of geographically adjacent images corresponding to the geographic location; generate a three-hundred and sixty degree view of a region surrounding the geographic location using at least a portion of the plurality of geographically adjacent images;
receiving a selection of at least one interactive element;enabling for selection of one of a first icon or a second icon, the first icon being configured to zoom in on a display of the three-hundred and sixty degree view of the region surrounding the geographic location and the second icon being configured to zoom out on the display of the three-hundred and sixty degree view of the region surrounding the geographic location; receiving a selection of the second icon to cause at least one change in a display of the three-hundred and sixty degree view of the region surrounding the geographic location, the at least one change in the display corresponding to zooming out on the display; determining that the display is zoomed out to a predetermined amount; and removing from display the second icon. - View Dependent Claims (7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)

15. A non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing one or more sequences of instructions executable by one or more processors to perform a set of operations comprising:
-
receiving a search request relating to a display of a geographic location; determining, in response to the search request, a plurality of geographically adjacent images corresponding to the geographic location; generating a three-hundred and sixty degree view of a region surrounding the geographic location using at least a portion of the plurality of geographically adjacent images;
receiving a selection of at least one interactive element;enabling for selection of one of a first icon or a second icon, the first icon being configured to zoom in on a display of the three-hundred and sixty degree view of the region surrounding the geographic location and the second icon being configured to zoom out on the display of the three-hundred and sixty degree view of the region surrounding the geographic location; receiving a selection of the second icon to cause at least one change in a display of the three-hundred and sixty degree view of the region surrounding the geographic location, the at least one change in the display corresponding to zooming out on the display; determining that the display is zoomed out to a predetermined amount; and removing from display the second icon. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18)
