1. A program storing computer-readable instructions therein for instructing a computer to perform analytical steps for generating a spatial hierarchical identifiers that corresponds to a spatial hierarchy used on a server, the program comprising:
- a recording medium readable by the computer; and
the computer instructions stored on said recording medium instructing the computer to perform the processes including;
identifying a position using a position indication system; and
generating an identifier within the computer and independent of the server, wherein the identifier identifies first regions within the first spatial hierarchy on the server corresponding to the position.
