Systems and methods for presenting information in response to a user interaction with a geographic image at a point of query in a geographic information system are provided. A user can request information at point of query in the geographic image. Responsive to the user request, the geographic information system can search for and obtain information associated with the request. As part of the logic used to return information responsive to a request at a point of query, a zone of influence can be defined for one or more features depicted in the image. The zone of influence can be defined by a pixel threshold in a pixel space associated with the geographic image. The pixel threshold can be constant across a plurality of zoom levels of the geographic image.
