Abstract
A method, program and system (10) for processing data are disclosed. The method, program and system comprising the steps of: (a) receiving data representing a location of an item (e.g., people, personal property, real property, organizations, chemical compounds, organic compounds, proteins, biological structures, biometric values or atomic structures), (c) determining a plurality of fixed coordinates that represent the location (e.g., by “rounding” and/or comparing to a reference grid), (d) utilizing an algorithm (e.g., encryption, encoding and/or one-way function) to process the plurality of fixed coordinates (each separately or together), and (e) comparing the processed data to at least a portion of secondary data (perhaps comprising data previously stored in a database).
