    Abstract: In some implementations, a computing device can identify relevant locations using location data gathered by and/or entered into the device. In some implementations, the device can proactively request offline map data for the relevant locations. A server can identify offline map data responsive to the request and send at least a portion thereof to the device in response. In some implementations, the device can suggest downloading offline map data for the relevant locations to a user before requesting the data. The user may be able to edit the location and/or search for other locations to download. The device may provide features for managing downloaded offline map content automatically and/or in response to user input.

    Abstract: Some embodiments provide location-based, application-feature notifications for a multi-feature application that executes on a device. For instance, when a feature (e.g., a functionality, or service) of an application becomes available in a particular region, some embodiments provide a notification of the availability of the new feature in the particular region. In some embodiments, the notification is a location-based notification that is provided to only devices that execute in or near the particular region in which the location-based feature has recently become available. In other embodiments, the notification is also provided to devices that are not near the particular region (e.g., are provided to all devices in the United States, when the feature becomes available in California).

    Abstract translation: 一些实施例为在设备上执行的多功能应用提供基于位置的应用特征通知。 例如，当应用的特征（例如，功能或服务）在特定区域中变得可用时，一些实施例提供在特定区域中新特征的可用性的通知。 在一些实施例中，通知是基于位置的通知，其被提供给仅在基于位置的特征最近变得可用的特定区域内或附近执行的设备。 在其他实施例中，还将该通知提供给不在特定区域附近的设备（例如，当该特征在加利福尼亚州可用时，它们被提供给美国的所有设备）。

    Abstract: In some implementations, a system can optimize offline map data updates. For example, a server device in the system can determine a metric for identifying map data objects based on attributes of the map data objects. The server device can then generate a quadtree that stores the map data objects in nodes of the quadtree based on the metric. When processing an update to the map data stored at the server device, the server device can generate update data describing the updates for each node in the quadtree based on a binary difference algorithm and/or a semantic difference algorithm. The server device can select the algorithm based on which algorithm results in the smallest compressed size of the update data.

    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems and processes for selecting location data provided by communicatively coupled electronic devices. In one example process, a first electronic device can select one of a first location determined by the first electronic device and a second location determined by a second electronic device for use as the location of the first electronic device. The selection can be made based on one or more of the times the first and second locations were determined, accuracies of the first and second location determinations, whether or not the first and second locations intersect, priorities associated with source used to determine the first and second locations, and previous location determinations made by the first electronic device. The selected location can be used as the location of the first electronic device to execute an application on the first electronic device.
