Abstract:
One or more in-range stationary stations are provided which are configured to transmit a signal received by an in-range mobile unit. An application is run on the in-range mobile unit, and, when run, comprises a destination input configured to present a destination graphical user input on a display screen of the in-range mobile unit along with information to thereby prompt a user to input textual information which the application receives and then uses to populate a set of geographic address fields representing a destination premises address. The application when run further includes calls to location services APIs, the calls including calls to cause an acquisition of a current location determination. The application converts the destination premises address to a destination geographic location using the same parameters used to represent the current location determination. The application when run provides an indication of the determined location of the in-range mobile unit in terms of a premises address. The current determined location is set to the destination premises address when a straight line distance between the destination geographic location and the acquired current location determination is less than a prescribed value.
