Abstract
An intelligent personal assistant interacts with a person’s calendar application and a three dimensional geobrowser application to create a guided three-dimensional virtual reality tour of a geographic region for a person. The intelligent personal assistant interacting with the geobrowser application identifies one or more points of interest that share a same geographic region as appointments scheduled in the person’s calendar application and generates a guided three-dimensional virtual reality tour for display by the geobrowser application, using the points of interest as waypoints of the guided three-dimensional virtual reality tour. Such a guided three-dimensional virtual reality tour makes it efficient and convenient for the person to explore a new region, providing the person with an understanding of spatial distances within the region as well as information with respect to points of interest. The guided three-dimensional virtual reality tour enables the person to plan and execute a physical tour that best meets the person’s interests or to even view the guided three-dimensional virtual reality tour as a substitute for the physical tour altogether.
