Abstract:
Certain embodiments of the present disclosure provide methods and systems for facilitating mobile device connections using geo data items. The method comprises receiving data packets transmitted over a network from a first mobile device corresponding to a first user. The data packets include a request for a dining companion, user information corresponding to the first user, and geo data items identifying a geo-location associated with the first user. A point-of-interest is determined based on the geo data items. One or more other mobile devices, corresponding to system users, within a bounded geographical area of the point-of-interest, are located based on the request and corresponding geo data items. An aggregated score for each system user is calculated based on user attributes and a connection between the first user and a system user is facilitated by the system if the aggregated score corresponding to the system user meets a predetermined threshold.
