Automated point of interest updates
First Claim
1. A system comprising:
- a nomadic device executing a location application and configured toconnect to a vehicle computing system (VCS) over a local connection and to a location service over a wide-area connection,receive point-of-interest data over the wide-area connection from the location service, andprovide the point-of-interest data to the VCS over the local connection to cause the VCS to switch from displaying a user interface of the location application executed by the nomadic device to displaying a user interface of a navigation application executed by the VCS.

Abstract
A nomadic device may be configured to connect to a vehicle computing system (VCS) over a local connection and to a location service over a wide-area connection, receive point-of-interest data over the wide-area connection from the location service, and provide the point-of-interest data to the VCS over the local connection for use by a navigation application of the VCS. The VCS may be configured to connect over a local connection to a nomadic device configured to execute a location application to connect to a location service over a wide-area connection, receive user interface input requesting point-of-interest data for use by a navigation application of the VCS, and responsive to the input, send a command over the local connection to request the point-of-interest data from the location application.

13. A system comprising:
a vehicle computing system (VCS) configured to execute a navigation application to; provide a request for point-of-interest information to a location application of a nomadic device connected to the VCS over a local connection, the location application configured to integrate with a human-machine-interface of the VCS, the request including query information including at least one of a current location of the vehicle and a category of business, receive point-of-interest data from the nomadic device, the point-of-interest data being retrieved by the nomadic device from a remote server over a wide-area network, utilize the point-of-interest data to update point-of-interest information maintained by the VCS for use by the navigation application, and switch from displaying a user interface of the location application executed by the nomadic device to displaying a user interface of the navigation application responsive to receipt of the point-of-interest data from the location application. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17)

18. A method comprising:
-
receiving, by a nomadic device executing a location application, point-of-interest data over a wide-area connection from a location service, and providing the point-of-interest data from the location application to a vehicle computing system (VCS) over a local connection to cause the VCS to switch from displaying a user interface of the location application executed by the nomadic device to displaying a user interface of a navigation application executed by the VCS.
