The Future of GPS Technology in the Real Estate World

May 19, 2008

There are sites now starting to pop-up where you can download your own Points of Interest (POI’s) into your GPS unit. 

Realtors could load up a GPS with specific POI’s for clients and ultimately make them available through a website where they can just download them into their own GPS.

They are also starting to come out with beta software to do GPS tours…when you drive by a POI, it starts an MP3 with info on that POI…so think about call signs IVR being replaced by a GPS recording.  What I see in the future is that every real estate listing has a POI you can download from the internet into your GPS…advertising/information is also downloaded on a voice file with that POI.
