1. A method for locating position for a mobile commutation device, comprising:
- inputting geo-indicators (Gi-i, Gi-2, . . . , Gi-n) based on text by a user with the mobile commutation device;
transmitting the geo-indicators to a back end server;
generating a candidate feature set for each geo-indicator by applying geocoding which maps the text address to a geo-location based on a back end spatial database;
deciding the final geo-location information by geoclustering the candidate feature set; and
transmitting the geo-location information to the mobile communication device.

Abstract
This invention presents methods, apparatus and systems for locating position for a mobile commutation device generally used in applications including mobile commerce. In example embodiments, geo-indicators based on text are inputted by a user with the mobile commutation device. Then, a candidate feature set is generated for each geo-indicator by applying geocoding which maps the text address to a geo-location based on a back end spatial database. The final geo-location information is decided by geoclustering the candidate feature set.
