Abstract
Systems, methods, and machine-readable media for prioritizing points of interest for display in a map based on the categories associated with each of the points of interest have been described. In certain aspects, the system may include a logging module, a category module, and a ranking module. The logging module may be configured to obtain a plurality of user interactions associated with a one or more categories. The category module may be configured to increment a category count for each category associated with the user interaction for each user interaction of the plurality of user interactions and calculate a category score for the each category of one or more categories based on the category count for each category of the one or more categories. The ranking module may be configured to calculate a priority score for each of the points of interest based on category scores for the one or more categories associated with each of the points of interest.
