Indicating availability of indoor content on a digital map
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method in a computing device for indicating availability of indoor map content, the method comprising:
- providing, by one or more processors, an interactive digital map of a geographic area via a viewport, wherein the viewport defines a visible portion of the digital map, including generating a first representation of a structure;
moving, by the one or more processors, the viewport relative to the digital map in response to one or more commands;
determining, by the one or more processors, whether indoor map data is available for the structure;
in response to determining that indoor map data is available for the structure;
(i) while the viewport is moving, displaying a second representation of the structure that indicates that indoor map data is available for the structure in place of the first representation of the structure, and(ii) when the viewport has stopped moving, displaying the first representation of the structure in place of the second representation of the structure; and
in response to determining that indoor map data is not available for the structure, continuing to display the first representation of the structure while the viewport is moving and when viewport has stopped moving.

Abstract
An interactive digital map of a geographic area is provided via a viewport that defines a visible portion of the digital map. The digital map includes a representation of a structure. The viewport is panned relative to the digital map in response to receiving a user request. An indication that indoor map data is available for the structure is displayed in response to determining that the viewport is panning, and the indication is removed in response to determining that the viewport has stopped panning.

9. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing thereon instructions for indicating availability of indoor map content that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:
-
provide an interactive digital map of a geographic area via a viewport, wherein the viewport defines a visible portion of the digital map, including generating a first representation of a structure; move the viewport relative to the digital map in response to one or more commands; determine whether indoor map data is available for the structure; in response to determining that indoor map data is available for the structure; (i) while the viewport is moving, display a second representation of the structure that indicates that indoor map data is available for the structure in place of the first representation of the structure, and (ii) when the viewport has stopped moving, display the first representation of the structure in place of the second representation of the structure; and in response to determining that indoor map data is not available for the structure, continue to display the first representation of the structure while the viewport is moving and when viewport has stopped moving. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15)

16. A computing device comprising:
-
one or more processors; a user interface coupled to the one or more processors; and a memory coupled to the one or more processors and storing thereon instructions for indicating availability of indoor map content, wherein the instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the computing device to; display, via a viewport on the user interface, an interactive digital map of a geographic area, wherein the viewport defines a visible portion of the digital map, and wherein the digital map includes a visual representation of a structure disposed within geographic area, move the viewport in accordance with user input received via the user interface, display an indication overlying the representation of the structure that indoor map data is available for the structure while the viewport is moving, and remove the indication when the viewport has stopped moving. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)
