Abstract
An approach is provided for customizing map presentations. A semantic mapping platform determines context information for rendering a map on a user device. The semantic mapping platform then classifies a plurality of objects available for display in the map based on a level of association of each of the objects with the context information. The semantic mapping platform also prioritizes rendering of the objects based on the classification and causes, at least in part, actions that result in the rendering of the objects in the map according to the prioritization.
