Abstract
Embodiments of the present invention are directed toward a system for bidirectional navigation viewing and methods thereof. The system includes at least one server and a first client device and a second client device that are both communicatively coupled with the server. The server is configured to continuously provide data to both devices for bidirectional viewing of an optimal route from a source location to a destination location on the first client device and on the second client device. The source location and the destination location are typically specified by the first client device and the second client device, respectively. The source location is typically the current location of the first device. The optimal route is continuously updated based on information sent to the server. The information typically includes updated location information of the first device and real-time traffic information between the two locations.
