摘要： Apparatus and methods for recommending a navigation destination based upon recent updates are provided. The apparatus and methods include, in one or more aspects, receiving a request from a user communication device for a desired item, and associating a user location of the user communication device with a destination location of a provider of the desired item. Further, the one or more aspects include identifying a destination communication device at the destination location, and querying the destination communication device for a human-originating response to obtain a current accessibility status of the desired item. Additionally, the one or more aspects include reporting the destination location of the provider and the current accessibility status to the user communication device.

摘要： Embodiment methods and systems enable personal navigation devices to warn drivers during turn-by-turn navigation directions when they are approaching a difficult turn. Personal navigation devices may report to a server when a turn is missed during turn-by-turn directions, including identifying the turn and situation information. The server may aggregate missed turn reports from many personal navigation devices to generate a difficult turn database. Personal navigation devices may access the difficult turn database when generating turn-by-turn directions to identify turns requiring enhanced directions. The difficult turn database may be stored on personal navigation devices, and/or may be maintained on the server. Personal navigation devices may be configured to recognize when turns are intentionally missed, and only report missed turns when they determined that the turn was missed unintentionally. Indications of turn difficulty may be correlated to situation information received in missed turn reports to more accurately reflect when turns are difficult.

摘要翻译： 实施例的方法和系统使得个人导航装置在逐渐转向的导航方向上接近难转时警告驾驶员。 个人导航设备可能会在转弯方向错过转弯时向服务器报告，包括识别转弯和情况信息。 服务器可能会聚合来自许多个人导航设备的错过的轮询报告，以生成难度转弯的数据库。 当生成转弯方向以识别需要增强方向的转弯时，个人导航装置可以访问困难的转弯数据库。 困难转弯数据库可以存储在个人导航设备上，和/或可以被维护在服务器上。 个人导航设备可以被配置为识别何时被故意丢失，并且只有当他们确定转弯被无意中错过时才报告错过的转弯。 转向困难的指示可能与错过转弯报告中收到的情况信息相关，以更准确地反映何时转弯困难。
