Abstract

An entry point card displayed within a mapping application viewport may display context and other data based on a calendar appointment and other data that the user might, predictably, want to search for upon opening the mapping application. Using appointment information from a calendar application, an entry point card might display a time the user must leave his current location in order to make the appointment on time. Or, using a history of the user's routine errands or trips, the entry point card may display predicted information. For example, the card may display an amount of time to get to work or other information.
