Patent number: 9030499Abstract: A system and method for generating a content based, custom labeled map is provided. A request for a map is received. The request includes a geographical area to be displayed in the map and a type of content item to be displayed in the map. A plurality of orientation points to display on the map is determined based on a ranking of locations in the geographical area, and one or more pieces of content to be associated with each orientation point is determined. Each orientation point is ranked based in part on ranks of the one or more pieces of content associated with each orientation point. A map is generated to display at the locations of the plurality of orientation points the pieces of content associated with each orientation point at a level of prominence that is based on the ranking of each orientation point.Type: GrantFiled: August 20, 2012Date of Patent: May 12, 2015Assignee: Google Inc.Inventors: Marcus Börger, Christos Savvopoulos, Jonah Jones

Patent number: 8725408Abstract: The invention relates to a method for prediction and identification of journey situations. A method for prediction of journey situations has the following steps: defining a plurality of standard journey situations, with each standard journey situation being characterized by a group of driving state parameters; defining a plurality of route state parameters in order to describe the state of a journey route; determining an association rule which associates in each case one group of values of the route state parameters with a standard journey situation; recording of an intended journey route; determining values of the route state parameters for the intended journey route; and associating the intended journey route with one of the standard journey situations on the basis of the association rule.Type: GrantFiled: June 29, 2006Date of Patent: May 13, 2014Assignee: Ford Global Technologies, LLCInventors: Thomas Hochkirchen, Mark Eifert, Maurice Rienks, Christian Ress, Aria Etemad, Marcus Boerger
