Generating routes using information from trusted sources

A system for generating routes based on information received from trusted sources, comprising:

• at least one computing device;
• and
• a map engine adapted to:
• present a first route;
• receive a user drawn annotated boundary of an area of interest from a trusted source, wherein the user drawn annotated boundary of the area of interest includes one or more descriptions, each description including one or more constraints;
• determine that the one or more constraints of the area of interest apply to the first route;
• in response to the determination, generate a second route based on the first route and the one or more constraints in the user drawn annotated boundary of the area of interest;
• and
• present the second route.

A method for generating routes based on information received from trusted sources, the method comprising:

• receiving a request for directions by a computing device, wherein the request includes an origin address and a destination address;
• selecting one or more areas of interest of a plurality of areas of interest having user drawn annotated boundaries that apply to the request for directions by the computing device, each user drawn annotated boundary including one or more descriptions, and each description including a time constraint and a transportation mode constraint;
• generating a route in response to the request for directions using the selected one or more areas of interest by the computing device, wherein the route includes the origin address and the destination address;
• and
• presenting the generated route in response to the request for directions by the computing device.
