Device based trigger for location push event
First Claim
1. A wireless device location based trigger, comprising:
- a trigger module, in a given physical wireless device, said trigger module being configured to;
locally trigger retrieval of a plurality of point of interest (POI) information proximate to a predicted future position of said given wireless device from a network-based location based services (LBS) server; and
receive a future proximate sub-plurality of POI information comprising a proper subset of said plurality of POI information that is culled based on a current path of travel, and speed, of said given physical wireless device; and
a display to display only said sub-plurality of POI information, obtained from a network-based location based services (LBS) server, at said given physical wireless device.

Abstract
A software LBS trigger is initiated by a wireless device to request a set of proximate location information points relating to, e.g., points of interest, location tagged blogs, etc., based on the user'"'"'s current location. The LBS trigger may be initiated when the user moves, and may include speed of the user to define a proximate area within which the user'"'"'s device will be presented with relevant location information upon reaching. The size of the proximate area may be based on available memory in the wireless device, and/or on network bandwidth limitations. If walking, a smaller proximate area is defined, or if moving fast, the area of close proximity is larger. The location-based information points are stored locally on the user'"'"'s device, and presentation to the user when the user gets closely proximate to the relevant information point.
