Abstract: The automatic generation of multiple sets of directions for navigating geographically to a specific destination without specification of an origin. Based on the destination, candidate roads or other transportation conduits are selected for analysis. Candidate meta-departure points are analyzed and selected along the roads based on distribution about the destination, cardinal directions relative to the destination, road metadata, distance to the destination, driving time, and other factors. The number of departure points generated to represent routes to the destination from the several logical cardinal directions is minimized. The generated departure points also represent routes that a majority of people would likely take to the destination. Additionally, the generated departure points originate from places that users are likely to be familiar with and can get to without additional guidance. The final instruction sets for navigating to the destination are presented along with a map that identified the departure points.
Abstract translation: 自动生成多套方向，用于在地理位置上导航到特定的目的地，而不需要指定原点。 根据目的地，选择候选道路或其他运输管道进行分析。 根据目的地的分布，相对于目的地的主要方向，道路元数据，到达目的地的距离，驾驶时间等因素，沿道路分析和选择候选的出发点。 生成的从多个逻辑基本方向表示到目的地的路线的出发点数量被最小化。 所产生的出发点也表示大多数人可能会到达目的地的路线。 此外，产生的出发点起源于用户可能熟悉的地方，无需其他指导即可获得。 导航到目的地的最终指导集与一个确定出发点的地图一起显示。

Abstract: A geographic navigation system for segmenting a received set of instructions (or directions) that guide a user over a geographic route from a starting location to an ending location, and then abbreviating a subset of the instructions related to the inexact or familiar regions into a more concise and relevant form, yet retain all the information for guiding the user on the trip. Route segmentation occurs before instruction abbreviation by segmenting the route into multiple logical components in which abbreviation can be applied. After the need for instruction abbreviation is recognized and the route is segmented, techniques and designs are employed to generate understandable strings that describe the abbreviated directions as well as controls that allow optimization of the user experience.

Abstract: A user can intend to travel between different locations and employ different traveling manners to reach an intended travel destination. At different points, different devices can be employed for disclosing a route. For instance, as a user walks, a route can be integrated into a personal electronic device, such as a cellular telephone. An evaluation can take place that due to specific route details, for example detailed text, a particular device would be superior for presentment over another.
Abstract translation: 用户可以打算在不同的地点之间旅行，并采用不同的旅行方式来到达目的地的旅行目的地。 在不同点，可以使用不同的装置来公开路线。 例如，当用户走路时，可将路线集成到诸如蜂窝电话的个人电子设备中。 可以进行评估，由于具体的路线细节，例如详细的文本，特定的设备将优于另一个的演示。

Abstract: As a pedestrian travels, various difficulties can be encountered, such as traveling through an unsafe neighborhood or being in an open area that is subject to harsh temperatures. A route can be developed for a person taking into account factors that specifically affect a pedestrian. Moreover, the route can alter as a situation of a user changes; for instance, if a user wants to add a stop along a route.
Abstract translation: 作为行人旅行，可能会遇到各种困难，例如穿过不安全的社区或处于遭受严酷气候的开放区域。 考虑到特定影响行人的因素，可以为一个人开发一条路线。 此外，路由可以随着用户的变化而改变; 例如，如果用户想要沿路径添加停靠点。

Abstract: An expandable system for mobile navigation facilitates a modular implementation of structural units to add desired functionality to a base navigation device. The system is embodied as a handheld mobile navigation device in one arrangement, including a base unit housing containing circuitry for determining a geographic location of the navigation device and a module unit housing containing circuitry for delivering additional functional activity. In particular, the base unit housing includes a primary interface for interconnecting with a secondary interface of the module unit housing, to enable signals generated or handled by a circuitry component of the module unit to be relayed to the circuitry of the base unit housing. Additionally, the module unit housing is configured to be releasably attached directly with the base unit housing upon the primary interface and secondary interface interconnecting with one another, to form the mobile navigation device as a physically connected package.

Abstract: A user can be provided a variety of incentives to take a route that is different from a standard path in order to relieve path load balancing issues. Information on a primary path can be collected and analyzed to determine if it would be beneficial to encourage users to take an alternate path. If it is determined that users should be encouraged to take another path, then analysis of potential users can occur. A result of the user analysis can be used to select users that are offered to take the alternate path as well as an incentive offered to the user to encourage her to take the alternate path.
Abstract translation: 为了减轻路径负载平衡问题，用户可以提供各种动机来采取不同于标准路径的路由。 可以收集和分析主要路径上的信息，以确定是否有益于鼓励用户采取替代路径。 如果确定应鼓励用户采取另一条路径，那么可能会发生潜在用户的分析。 用户分析的结果可以用于选择被提供以采用备用路径的用户以及向用户提供的鼓励以鼓励她采用替代路径的激励。

Abstract: Routes can be produced based on safety characteristics of paths that are included in the route. Safety characteristics can include how susceptible an area surrounding a path is to crime as well as traffic data, such as how many automobile accidents take place on average. Various amounts of safety information can be gathered and a particular path can be assigned a safety score. Analysis can run on different path combinations that would take a user from a starting point to an intended destination. A route can be produced based on the safety score alone, such as a route with a lowest score, based on the safety score with other factors such as anticipated traffic, and the like.
Abstract translation: 可以基于路由中包含的路径的安全特性生成路由。 安全特征可以包括道路周围区域对犯罪的敏感程度以及交通数据，如平均发生多少汽车事故。 可以收集各种数量的安全信息，并且可以为特定路径分配安全评分。 分析可以在不同的路径组合上运行，这将使用户从起点到预期的目的地。 可以基于仅基于安全评分（诸如具有最低分数的路线），基于具有诸如预期交通量等其他因素的安全分数来生成路线。

Abstract: Driving directions can be helpful if in addition to spatial information, landmark information is provided. Landmarks assist in adding context to directions as well as allowing for a greater likelihood of success of an operator following directions. There can be employment of physical identification of landmarks as well as processing regarding the utility of a landmark in regards to driving directions. Driving directions can be highly useful if integrated landmarks relate to knowledge possessed by an operator of a vehicle. Landmark based driving direction can be integrated with advertisements that relate to the directions.
