Publication number: 20250046043Abstract: 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.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 16, 2024Publication date: February 6, 2025Applicant: Apple Inc.Inventors: Erik Anders Mikael Adlers, Christopher F. Marrin, Elisabeth Lindkvist, Jeffrey Paul McCurdy Hultquist, Ian MacDonald Henderson, II

Patent number: 10019850Abstract: Some embodiments provide a mapping application that receives input to adjust an amount of tilt from which to view a 3D map for a viewing mode in which the 3D map is specified to be textured with camera captured images (CCIs) of the real world. The mapping application also adjusts a set of heights for a set of road path indicators in the 3D map based on the adjusted amount of tilt. Each road path indicator indicates a path of a road in the 3D map. The mapping application further displays the 3D map with the adjusted amount of tilt and the set of road path indicators at the adjusted set of heights in the 3D map.Type: GrantFiled: August 10, 2016Date of Patent: July 10, 2018Assignee: APPLE INC.Inventors: Adrian Lindberg, Per Fahlberg, Elisabeth Lindkvist

Patent number: 9631942Abstract: For a device that runs a mapping application, a method for providing maneuver indicators along a route of a map. The maneuver indicators are arrows that identify the direction and orientation of a maneuver. A maneuver arrow may be selected and displayed differently from unselected maneuver arrows. Maneuver arrows may be selected automatically based on a user's current location. The mapping application transitions between maneuver arrows and provides an animation for the transition. Complex maneuvers may be indicated by multiple arrows, providing a more detailed guidance for a user of the mapping application.Type: GrantFiled: October 5, 2016Date of Patent: April 25, 2017Assignee: APPLE INC.Inventors: Marcel van Os, Cédric Bray, Yaohua Hu, Elisabeth Lindkvist, Adrian Lindberg, Christine B. McGavran, Billy P. Chen
