Abstract
Systems and methods for providing 'point of interest' information to travelers. Large databases can be populated with information relating to a wide variety of different 'points of interest.' Individual users can use the system to automatically focus on information that is likely to be interesting to the user, while ignoring information that is unlikely to be interest to the user. The position of the user can influence which “points of interest” on the database are selectively identified by the system.
