Abstract: Systems and methods for management of geographic data layers in a geographic information system are provided. A layer control tool can be presented in conjunction with the geographic imagery. The layer control tool can provide a control interface to allow the user to manage the display of various geographic data layers in conjunction with the geographic imagery. The layer control tool can include a dynamic control list of geographic data layers. Geographic data layers can be identified for inclusion in the dynamic control list and/or ordered within the dynamic control list based on frequency of user interaction with the geographic data layers. In a particular implementation, the geographic data layers are identified for inclusion in the dynamic control list and/or ordered within the dynamic control list based on a layer score associated with each geographic data layer.

Abstract: A layer control tool for controlling the display of geographic data layers in a geographic information system is provided. The layer control tool can be presented in overlaying the geographic imagery. The layer control tool can include a plurality of identifiers associated with a set of geographic data layers that can be displayed in conjunction with the geographic imagery. A user can adjust or control the display of geographic data layers in conjunction with the geographic imagery by interacting with the floating layer control tool. For instance, a user can interact with the floating layer control tool, for instance by tapping a touch screen, to identify a selected geographic data layer in the set of geographic data layers. Responsive to this user interaction, the geographic information system can display the geographic data layer in conjunction with the geographic imagery and hide other previous displayed geographic data layers.

Abstract: This invention relates to panning in a three dimensional environment on a mobile device. In an embodiment, a computer-implemented method for navigating a virtual camera in a three dimensional environment on a mobile device having a touch screen. A user input is received indicating that an object has touched a first point on a touch screen of the mobile device and the object has been dragged to a second point on the touch screen. A first target location in the three dimensional environment is determined based on the first point on the touch screen. A second target location in the three dimensional environment is determined based on the second point on the touch screen. Finally, a three dimensional model is moved in the three dimensional environment relative to the virtual camera according to the first and second target locations.

Abstract: Embodiments relate to navigating through a three dimensional environment on a mobile device using a single gesture. A first user input is received, indicating that two or more objects have touched a view of the mobile device. Two or more target locations on a surface of the three-dimensional environment corresponding to the two or more objects touching the view of the mobile device are determined. A second user input indicating that the two objects have performed a motion while touching the view of the mobile device is received. Camera parameters for the virtual camera, based on the received second user input, are determined. The virtual camera is moved within the three dimensional environment according to the determined camera parameters, such that the two or more target locations remain corresponding to the two or more objects touching the view of the mobile device. Moving the virtual camera may include zooming, rotating, tilting, and panning the virtual camera.

Abstract: Systems and methods of transporting virtual objects through a virtual world associated with a parallel reality game are provided. The virtual world has a geography that parallels at least a portion of the geography of the real world. A method includes accessing at least one data source storing or providing data associated with the location of a real world carrier. The method further includes modifying game data associated with the parallel reality to transport at least one virtual object through the virtual world, such that the position of the virtual object in the virtual world is based, at least in part, on the data associated with the location of the real world carrier. Other implementations are directed to systems, apparatus, non-transitory computer-readable media, devices, and user interfaces for transporting virtual objects in a location-based parallel reality game.
