Abstract

See full text

Identifying locations that are proximate to a particular route is disclosed. A route employed by a user for travelling to a destination is obtained and segmented at identified vertices. Locations that are proximate to the route segments are determined. The proximate locations are further analyzed to obtain their specific distances from the user's route. Location based services are associated with those proximate locations that are closest to the user's route. The user does not have to deviate far from their current route to visit the associated locations and may be motivated to capitalize on the location based services.
