1. An information processing system comprising:
- (a) a static-data portion, which maybe cache on a client computer device with a display and a input apparatus (b) a dynamic-data portion, which is retrieved from a server through a network (c) said static-data comprising of an executable program object, a base map graphics file, and a data portion indicating a location and a depiction of at least a single entity on said base map graphics file (d) said base map graphics file containing a collection of graphical representations of real tangible entities (e) said dynamic-data indicating at least a single attribute status of at least one said entity present on said base map graphics file (f) said executable program object will display said base map graphics file on said client machine as a map image, and render at least one said entity on said map image (g) said location and said depiction will be used to plot said entity'"'"'s shape on a section of said map image (h) said entity will be rendered on said map image utilizing said entity'"'"'s said location and said depiction in conjunction with the said entity'"'"'s said attribute status (i) said attribute status can be shown graphically through the use of at least one method selected from group consisting of different colors, patterned fills, dashes, and weight of lines used in said depiction whereby enabling the transfer of multiple independent attributes of multiple entities for display graphically to an end-user over a network, whereby reducing the total network bandwidth required to retrieve multiple discrete dynamic information graphically, whereby reducing the server load required to make available multiple discrete dynamic information graphically.

Abstract
A method and system for conveyance over a network of dynamic information about multiple entities to be displayed graphically on a map to an end user. Wherein the map contains a collection of graphical representations of real tangible entities with a relatively fixed location to one another. The dynamic information about the entities will be transferred separately from the static portions, hence avoiding the inefficiencies of transferring the data as a finished file to the end user.

7. A method for transfer of dynamic data over network to be displayed graphically comprising:
-
(a) a server connected to a network (b) a client with ability to retrieve data from said sever over said network (c) a static-data portion, which maybe cache on said client (d) a dynamic-data portion to be retrieved from server (e) said static-data comprising of an executable program object, a base map containing a collection of graphical representations of entities, and an entity data component containing information about said graphical representations of entities present on said base map (f) said dynamic-data portion indicating dynamic information related to said graphical representations of entities (g) a means by which the said static-data portion and said dynamic-data portion are complied on said client to create a visual map with the entities'"'"' dynamic information render on the map whereby enabling the transfer of multiple independent attributes of multiple entities for display graphically to an end-user over a network, whereby reducing the total network bandwidth required to retrieve multiple discrete dynamic information graphically, whereby reducing the server load required to make available multiple discrete dynamic information graphically. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9)

10. A communication system comprising:
-
(a) an instance of data to be displayed to an end user graphically over a network (b) said instance of data containing dynamic-information about at least a single entity, which is retrieved from a server through said network and (c) said instance of data having a related static-data portion, which also needs to be retrieved and maybe cache on a client computer device with a display and a input apparatus (d) said static-data comprising of an executable program object, a base map graphics file, and a data portion indicating a location and a depiction of at least a single entity on said base map graphics file (e) said base map graphics file containing a collection of graphical representations of real tangible entities with a relatively fixed location to one another (f) said instance of data indicating at least a single attribute status of at least one said entity present on said base map graphics file (g) said executable program object will display said base map graphics file on said client machine as a map image, and render at least one said entity on said map image (h) said location and said depiction will be used to plot said entity'"'"'s shape on a section of said map image (i) said entity will be rendered on said map image utilizing said entity'"'"'s said location and said depiction in conjunction with the said entity'"'"'s said attribute status (j) said attribute status can be shown graphically through the use of at least one method selected from group consisting of different colors, patterned fills, dashes, and weight of lines used in said depiction whereby enabling the transfer of multiple independent attributes of multiple entities for display graphically to an end-user over a network, whereby reducing the total network bandwidth required to retrieve multiple discrete dynamic information graphically, whereby reducing the server load required to make available multiple discrete dynamic information graphically. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13)
