Abstract
Methods and systems for identifying and selectively displaying indications of nearby vehicles are presented. In one example, a method is provided that includes receiving locations of vehicles located near a location of a user device. The vehicles may include vehicles of a first type and vehicles of a second type. A cluster including at least a first subset of the vehicles of the first type may be identified and a location of the cluster may be identified. The location of the cluster may represent the location of at least one of the first subset of the vehicles. A second subset of the vehicles of the second type may then be identified including at most a predetermined quantity of vehicles. A map may be generated that includes a first indication at the location of the cluster and second indications at the location of the second subset of the vehicles.
