Abstract
Systems and methods for improving a location search process are provided. A networked system accesses trip data associated with the POI. The networked system receives an indication of a search being performed at a user device and detects a location of the user device. The networked system accesses an index in a data storage. From the index, the networked system determines a region identifier that corresponds to the location of the user device, the region identifier identifying a dynamically generated region in which to perform the search. Based on a search term, the networked system performs the search in the dynamically generated region corresponding to the region identifier. The networked system then causes presentation of a result of the search on the user device.
