This location-based search and navigation toolbar is able to share geo-relevant information defining user location with contextually appropriate and socially accepted neighborhood areas.

Loki also offers a service, called MyLoki, that allows a user to take their current location and broadcast it to a number of services so that they can share it with friends and family. The MyLoki service also includes an application for Facebook, Twitter integration, a Location Feed (RSS) and map badge for personal blogs.

Skyhook Wireless plans to also offer Urban Mapping’s neighborhood data though a software developer kit (SDK) for non-commercial use. With this service, developers can create accurate, location-relevant interactive applications pinpointing user location through Skyhook Wireless’ WPS technology coupled with neighborhood boundary data from Urban Mapping.
