Abstract

See full text

A method and system for determining the geographical distance between a first object and a second object based on the use of a vertical-horizontal coordinate system. First identification information for the first object is provided, and a first set of vertical-horizontal coordinates corresponding to the first object is determined. Similarly, second identification information for the second object is provided, and a second set of vertical-horizontal coordinates corresponding to the second object is determined. The first and second set of vertical-horizontal coordinates are used to calculate a geographical distance between the first object and the second object. The method and system also may use distance determination in the evaluation of services, and in particular, in pricing services.
