Abstract

With the addition of directional information and gesture based input in a location based services environment, a variety of service(s) can be provided. For example, a computer system can identify a spatially-related point of interest based on a geographical location of the computer system and based on directional information. The computer system can display a first visualization of a first type, including an indication of the point of interest, which represents the geographical location. Then, based on detecting a gesture, the computer can display a second visualization of a second type, also including an indication of the point of interest, which also represents the geographical location.
