1. A system for providing directional guidance to a driver of goods to a destination location, said system comprising:
a data repository configured to store historical positional locations of delivery drivers who previously delivered goods to a destination location, the positional locations being based on geographic coordinates from electronic devices carried by vehicles used to make the deliveries;
a processing unit configured to:
receive a destination location;
access said data repository to identify historical positional locations associated with the destination location;
communicate at least a portion of the historical positional locations to a mapping application being executed by an electronic device of a delivery driver, at least a portion of the historical positional locations causing the mapping application to display the historical positional locations on a map to provide driving directions for the delivery driver;
determine that the destination location is beyond a last mappable location of the mapping application; and
in response to determining that the driver passes the last mappable location, automatically command the mapping application to display satellite imagery.
