Abstract

A viewport system dynamically frames and displays important maps features. The viewport system automatically adjusts map parameters to display useful map features to a user. The system determines a state associated with a client device, the state being determined based on telemetry information received from the client device. The system further receives a set of edge insets that defines a viewport which is a region of a screen used to display visualization of a map. The determination of the set of edge insets may take into account other UI elements to avoid obstructions within the view. The system then determines a set of coordinates describing points of interest in the map. The system fits the set of coordinates into the set of edge insets and determine a set of map parameters and then displays the map based on the determined map parameters on a viewport.
