Abstract
A device can receive a search query from another. The device can determine an information content of the partial query. The device can determine a set of tiles for identifying search results based on the information content of the partial query. The set of tiles can correspond to a geographic area within a proximity of the other device. The set of tiles can be associated with data identifying a set of points of interest associated with the geographic area. The device can obtain the data identifying the set of points of interest associated with the geographic area based on determining the set of tiles. The device can identify a set of search results based on the partial query and the data identifying the set of points of interest associated with the geographic area. The device can provide information identifying the set of search results.
