Abstract

See full text

A method, mobile device, application server, and computer program product, for requesting a geospatial-location-specific application associated with a geospatial-location-specific service that are both specific to a geospatial location corresponding to a current geospatial location of the mobile device. The mobile device determines a current geospatial location of the mobile device and sends a request message to an application server. The request message includes the current geospatial location of the mobile device and a request to receive a geospatial-location-specific application associated with a geospatial-location-specific service. The mobile device receives a response message including identification of a candidate geospatial-location-specific application associated with a geospatial-location-specific service, specific to a geospatial location within a defined nearby vicinity area of the current geospatial location of the mobile device. The mobile device displays a list of selectable choices prioritized by proximity of geospatial location associated with each candidate geospatial-location-specific application.
