Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0101295A1] The present invention relates to creating information objects relating to a geographical place. A first user at a mobile client (13) can make/place an indication, a footprint, related to a geographical position and store the indication by means of a service server (16), which is accessible on an open computer network, such as Internet (11). By the computer network also others have access to the footprint. The footprint indicates a place of interest and can be registered so that it can be seen only by the one who has made/placed it, by all within a certain group, or be entirely public. The information then can be shown to the same user, or others, on a map of one to a client equipment connected display unit, at which position of current interest (22) and icons (21, 23) appear on the map when the client equipment is moved. Associated with the icons there also is an address to further information that is accessible to be derived via computer network.
