Various embodiments of the present invention provide an apparatus, method, and computer program product for mapping points of interest relative to a geometric shape defined on a map. More specifically, an apparatus, method, and computer program product is provided wherein a user may view on a map a geometric shape that depicts an area within a geographic region that is expected to be reachable from a point of interest within a threshold period of time.

Some embodiments provide a mapping application that displays a rotation of a 3D map and corresponding rotation of a set of map labels overlaying the 3D map in response to receiving input to rotate the 3D map. When a particular map label in the set of map labels rotates towards an upside down orientation, the mapping application also replaces the particular map label with a version of the particular map label arranged in a right side up orientation to prevent the particular map label from being displayed in the upside down orientation in the 3D map.

The present disclosure provides for searching and identifying establishments based on content to be presented at the establishment. For example, businesses can add attributes to a business profile, the attributes indicating sports, leagues, teams, matches, etc. that the business will display. The attributes may be searchable by a user, such as through a search engine application, a maps application, or other application. In this regard, the user can quickly identify a business in a selected region that will be playing what the user wants to watch.

Disclosed are a digital signage platform providing apparatus, an operating method thereof, and a system including the same. By calculating a reference point of a building area for displaying content information related to a plurality of pieces of POI information based on sensing data of a vehicle and floor number information and spatial coordinates for the building area, rendering AR digital signage corresponding to the content information in one or more AR display areas determined based on the calculated reference point, and providing the rendering result to a user terminal, the result may be mapped, on a floor-by-floor basis, to an AR display area of a building in a driving image acquired through a vision sensor. Accordingly, it is possible to overcome the limitation of displaying only one advertisement and maximize an advertisement effect to provide a plurality of various advertisements in one building.

Aspects of the disclosure relate to intelligent processing of broken or failed ATM transactions. In some embodiments, a computing platform may receive transaction data associated with a pending transaction initiated on a mobile computing device and generate hash information corresponding to the received transaction data. Then, the computing platform may identify ATMs previously visited by the user. Based on performing analytics on those previously visited ATMs, the computing platform may identify, from those previously visited ATMs, one or more alternate ATMs for completing the pending transaction. Next, the computing platform may send a notification to the mobile computing device that includes navigation information. Thereafter, the computing platform may cause the alternate ATMs to await input from the user by sending the generated hash information. In response to receiving a message indicating completion of the pending transaction, the computing platform may initiate clearing of a pending status of the pending transaction.

Computer-implemented methods, computer-readable storage media storing instructions and computer systems for labeling significant locations based on contextual data can be implemented to perform operations that include determining a location of a computing device, and determining a label for the determined location based on contextual data associated with the significant location. The location can be a significant location that has meaning to a user of the device.

The technology involves communicating the reachability status associated with an autonomous vehicle to a user such as a rider within the vehicle, a person awaiting pickup, or a customer that scheduled a package deliver. Reachability information about pickup and/or drop off locations is presentable via an app on a user device, which helps set expectations with customers about where the vehicle is most likely to be able to perform a pickup and/or drop off. This may include indicating how much variance there may be based on current congestion, parking or idling regulations, or weather conditions. The reachability information may be presented via one or more visualization tools to indicate the uncertainty and/or likely final location. Presenting such contextual information may be done based on real time information, and the presentation may be updated as needed. Historical information about the location may also be used to lower the level of uncertainty.

Aspects of the disclosure relate generally to generating and providing route options for an autonomous vehicle. For example, a user may identify a destination, and in response the vehicle's computer may provide routing options to the user. The routing options may be based on typical navigating considerations such as the total travel time, travel distance, fuel economy, etc. Each routing option may include not only an estimated total time, but also information regarding whether and which portions of the route may be maneuvered under the control of the vehicle alone (fully autonomous), a combination of the vehicle and the driver (semiautonomous), or the driver alone. The time of the longest stretch of driving associated with the autonomous mode as well as map information indicating portions of the routes associated with the type of maneuvering control may also be provided.

To provide personalized data for display on a map, a server device obtains location data for a user and identifies locations that are familiar to the user based on the frequency and recency in which the user visits the locations. The server device then provides the familiar locations in search results/suggestions and annotates the familiar locations with a description of a relationship between the familiar location and the user. The server device also includes the familiar locations as landmarks for performing maneuvers in a set of navigation instructions. Furthermore, the server device provides a familiar location as a frame of reference on a map display when a user selects another location nearby the familiar location. Moreover, the server device includes a familiar location as an intermediate destination when the user request navigation directions to a final destination.

A map having surfaces that are depicted at different levels that are not related to topography, with boundaries between the surfaces, where the boundaries are disposed at travel ways. The travel ways form cliff faces in the map between the surfaces, with information items disposed on the cliff faces at positions corresponding to items of interest at locations along the travel ways where the information items are disposed.
