Abstract
A device can determine route information associated with a route of a vehicle, identify a point of interest (POI) based on the route information, and identify a portion of the route that has a shortest distance to the POI. The device can determine one or more paths from the POI, and determine whether the portion of the route is included in an initial portion of a path of the one or more paths. The device can determine whether the POI is located to a right of the portion of the route, and perform one or more actions to cause the route information and information regarding the POI to be provided to a user device associated with the vehicle based on whether the portion of the route is included in the initial portion of the path, and whether the POI is located to the right of the portion of the route.
