Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, can be used to dynamically generate electronic maps with highlighted entity boundaries. In one aspect, a method includes receiving a request for an electronic map segment for a geographic region, with the request identifying a geographic entity to be highlighted in the requested electronic map segment. A plurality of layers of map data associated with the geographic region and data defining a boundary of the identified geographic entity are retrieved in response to the request. The electronic map segment is rendered based on the retrieved plurality of layers of map data and the data defining the boundary of the geographic entity, with one or more of the retrieved layers are rendered over a rendering of a highlighted boundary of the geographic entity. The rendered electronic map segment is transmitted in response to the request.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method that includes for each geographic object of a geo-object set, identifying, using a computer, one or more geographic cells of a geographic mapping that each correspond to a geographic area proximate to at least a portion of a geometry of the geographic object and assigning a weighting value to each of the one or more geographic cells identified as corresponding to a geographic area proximate to at least a portion of a geometry of the geographic object such that the one or more geographic cells are associated with the geo-object. The method also including, for each geographic cell assigned one or more weighting values, aggregating the one or more weighting values assigned to the geographic cell to generate an aggregated weighting value for the geographic cell, identifying a set of dense geographic cells (each geographic cell of the set of dense geographic cells having an aggregated weighting value that satisfies a weighting threshold criteria) and generating an index associating each of the one or more geographic cells of the set of dense geographic cells with one or more geographic objects associated with the geographic cell.
