1. A computer-implemented method for facilitating communication in connection with a unique map based electronic communications account for a property or business establishment, the method comprising:
receiving, by a computer system, a request to generate a new map based electronic communications account for a property or business establishment, wherein the request comprises a geographic location comprising one or more of a location of an electronic device, object, or a location selected from an electronic map or database;
accessing, by the computer system, data related to the geographic location, wherein the geographic location is determined based at least in part by identifying a latitude and longitude for the geographic location;
determining, by the computer system using a property database, the property or business establishment that encompasses the latitude and longitude for the geographic location;
generating the new map based electronic communications account for the property or business establishment based on the geographic location;
determining, by the computer system, whether the geographic location is associated with a location of interest; and
in response to determining that the geographic location is associated with the location of interest, automatically associating, by the computer system, the new map based electronic communications account created for each property or business establishment with the location of interest;
identifying a map based channel of communication for the automatically generated new map based electronic communications account;
generating, by the computer system, one or more unique electronically scannable location based quick response (QR) codes in connection with the new map based electronic communication account for the property or business establishment and the location of interest;
wherein a domain of the new map based electronic communication account is associated with a name of the business establishment or location of interest;
linking one or more users to the new map based electronic communication account based on the domain; and
transmitting one or more electronic communications to the one or more users via the map based channel of communication;
wherein the new map based electronic communications account allows an electronic message to be transmitted via panning to the new map based electronic communications account by identifying or selecting an area or the property or business establishment based on the location and the domain, creating a closed network of electronic communication for the one or more users;
wherein the computer system comprises a computer processor and an electronic storage medium.
