1. A method implemented by a computing device comprising a processor and a display screen, the method comprising:
- receiving, with a processor, a request to display descriptive information for a location of interest on a device;
retrieving, with the processor, a first set of attributes for the location of interest, the first set of attributes describing an address for the location of interest;
comparing, with the processor, the retrieved first set of attributes to a second set of attributes describing an address for a location associated with the device;
identifying at least one common attribute that is common to the first set of attributes and the second set of attributes;
generating a location description for the location of interest, including generating a reduced set of attributes that excludes the at least one common attribute and thereby comprises attributes that are different from the attributes in the second set of attributes; and
displaying, on the display screen, the location description comprising the reduced set of attributes for the location of interest.

Abstract
A processor may receive a request to display descriptive information for a location of interest on a device. The processor may retrieve a first set of attributes for the location of interest and compare the retrieved set of attributes to a second set of attributes for a location associated with the device. The processor may reduce the first set of attributes to a reduced set of attributes comprising attributes that are different from the attributes in the second set of attributes. The processor may cause the device to display the reduced set of attributes.

15. A device comprising:
-
a display; and a processor coupled to the display and configured to; receiving, with a processor, a request to display descriptive information for a location of interest on a device; retrieving, with the processor, a first set of attributes for the location of interest, the first set of attributes describing an address for the location of interest; comparing, with the processor, the retrieved first set of attributes to a second set of attributes describing an address for a location associated with the device; identifying at least one common attribute that is common to the first set of attributes and the second set of attributes; generating a location description for the location of interest, including generating a reduced set of attributes that excludes the at least one common attribute and thereby comprises attributes that are different from the attributes in the second set of attributes; and displaying, on the display screen, the location description comprising the reduced set of attributes for the location of interest. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28)
