Abstract

A method executed by a computing device includes receiving a search criteria and location data from a user device in communication with the computing device, determining a user location based on the location data, and determining a geographical density of entities about the user location. The method optionally includes selecting one or more access mechanisms based on the search criteria and the geographical density. Each access mechanism, when executed by the user device, causes the user device to access a resource identified by the access mechanism. The method also optionally includes transmitting search results containing the one or more selected access mechanisms from the computing device to the user device.
