Abstract
A feature provided by a navigation system or a navigation services provider provides navigation-related services for plural users who have related needs. In one embodiment, a first user specifies a type of place at which to meet a second user who is at a location some distance away from the first user. The navigation feature identifies one or more places of the specified type that are convenient for both users to travel to. The navigation feature may also provide the users with instructions for traveling to a selected place.
