Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices are described for predicting a destination of a user and sharing the presumed destination with the other users via a geographically-based graphical user interface. Consistent with some embodiments, an electronic communication containing location information is received from a location sensor coupled to a first client device. A current trajectory of the first user is determined based on the location information. A presumed destination of the first user is determined, by correlating the current trajectory of the first user with historical location information of the first user. A map depicting an icon associated with the presumed destination of the first user is displayed, on a display screen of a second client device of a second user.
