Qype improves vicinity searches


The local information and rating portal Qype has expanded its search capabilities. For example, the user is now able to find undertakings in the vicinity of local points of interest, buildings, as well as city sections.

Qype Umkreissuche / Qype vicinity searchQype Community Manager Sven Dietrich posted a short video in the company blog, in which he demonstrates the new search capabilities.

Thus, one could search for “Clubs in St. Pauli”, as easily as “museums in Berlin-Mitte.” In addition, also look for areas that are not formally designated city sections, for example the “Schanze” in Hamburg, can also be entered in the “Wo” [“Where”] field of the Search entry. Similarly one can enter famous buildings, such as the “Kölner Dom” [‘Cologne Cathedral’], or the TV Tower in Stuttgart as the “Suchort” [‘Location’] to be sought. Qype then shows the results in the vicinity. One can also enter landscape features like the “Lüneburger Heide” [‘Lüneburger Heath’] can be found under the section “Plätze” [‘Places’].
