METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PROVIDING LIST-BASED EXPLORATION OF MAPPING DATA
First Claim
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:
- an association of one or more features of a geographical area with one or more list objects;
a processing of location information associated with one or more map data items to group, to sort, or a combination thereof the one or more map data items into the one or more list objects; and
a rendering of at least one of the one or more list objects in a user interface,wherein the user interface includes one or more user interface elements for controlling a browsing of the one or more map data items in the at least one of the one or more list objects.

Abstract
An approach is provided for providing list-based exploration of mapping data. The list-based exploration platform causes, at least in part, an association of one or more features of a geographical area with one or more list objects. Next, the list-based exploration platform processes and/or facilitates a processing of location information associated with one or more map data items to group, to sort, or a combination thereof the one or more map data items into the one or more list objects. Then, the list-based exploration platform causes, at least in part, a rendering of at least one of the one or more list objects in a user interface, wherein the user interface includes one or more user interface elements for controlling a browsing of the one or more map data items in the at least one of the one or more list objects.
