Abstract: An approach is provided for determining a first location-based record associated with at least one device (501). Next, the point of interest platform causes, at least in part, a specification of a second location-based record relative to the first location-based record (503). Subsequently, the point of interest platform causes, at least in part, a transmission of the second location-based record to the at least one device (505), wherein transmission of the second location-based record to the at least one device is based, at least in part, on the one or more codes.

Abstract: An approach is provided for determining a request from a user to access data associated with at least one point of interest (501). Then, the point of interest platform causes a presentation of at least one prompt for the user to provide information related to one or more brands associated with the at least one point of interest (503). Subsequently, the point of interest platform causes, at least in part, a presentation of at least a portion of the data and/or additional data based, at least in part, on the information provided by the user (505).

Abstract: Facilitating local resource offerings involves facilitating, via a mobile device, selection of a resource for local advertisement. The resource includes at least one of an offering and a request for an offering targeted to others in a local geographic area. A telephonic message is formed for presenting the local advertisement the telephonic message is communicated to the others in the local geographic area via a local telephonic architecture.
