Abstract:
A computing system is configured to receive location data from a first wireless device of a first user. The system determines one or more coordinates associated with an establishment. The system determines that the first user is located at the establishment using the location data and the coordinates associated with the establishment. The system receives, from a second wireless device of a second user, a request for a location of the first user. The system determines that that the second user has permission to obtain the location of the first user. The system then transmits, to the second wireless device, information associated with the establishment where the first user is determined to be located.
