Abstract
A novel system and method for processing location data are disclosed. An exemplary method includes receiving location data from a remote device, associating the location data with a particular subscriber, augmenting the location data in one of a plurality of predetermined ways based on information associated with the particular subscriber to produce augmented location data, and providing the augmented location data to the subscriber. In a more particular embodiment, the step of augmenting the location data includes retrieving a subscriber file associated with the subscriber and performing one or more augmentation processes on the location data based at least in part on the subscriber file. An example system includes both a remote device operative to transmit location data and a central station for performing the methods of the present invention.
