Abstract

Generating route guidance in near real-time. At least one example is a method of providing route guidance by way of a mobile device, the method comprising: acquiring an applet by the mobile device, the acquiring responsive to a trigger event, and the trigger event identifies a destination location; determining, by the applet executed on the mobile device, an initial location of the mobile device; sending, by the applet executed on the mobile device, to a server an indication of the initial location of the mobile device and an indication of the destination location; receiving, by the mobile device from the server, a map comprising the initial location and the destination location; determining, by the applet executed on the mobile device, a route from the initial location to the destination location; and providing, by the applet executed on mobile device, guidance along the route to the destination location.
