Claim:
1. Apparatus, the apparatus having at least one processor and at least one memory having computer-readable code stored thereon which when executed causes the apparatus: to receive at least one angle-of-departure positioning message from a positioning beacon; to receive a point of interest packet data unit from the positioning beacon, the point of interest packet data unit comprising first data indicating a first range from a first point of interest that is located at a position that is different than a position of the positioning beacon, the first range and the first point of interest defining an area around the first point of interest; to use the angle-of-departure positioning message to calculate a position of the apparatus; to respond to determining that the position of the apparatus has a certain relationship with respect to the area defined by the first range and the first point of interest by providing a notification; when the first data indicates that a notification is to be triggered when the mobile device moves within an area defined by the first range and the first point of interest, to respond to determining that the position of the apparatus has moved from outside to inside the area defined by the first range and the first point of interest by providing the notification; when the first data indicates that a notification is to be triggered when the mobile device moves without an area defined by the first range and the first point of interest, to respond to determining that the position of the apparatus has moved from inside to outside the area defined by the first range and the first point of interest by providing the notification; and when the first data indicates that a notification is to be provided indicating a heading to the first point of interest from the position of the apparatus, to provide an indication of a heading to the first point of interest and sequentially to a next point of interest of multiple points of interest for which a heading is to be provided, until a heading has been provided for a last point of interest of said multiple points of interest for which a heading is to be provided.
