1. A method comprising:
- determining a first location of a device;
based on a trigger, determining a second location of the device;
compressing the first location and second location as an initial location and an offset from the initial location, where the offset is an angle and a distance; and
transmitting location information associated with the initial location to a remote device.

Abstract
Methods, systems and computer program products for providing an adaptive active location information gathering algorithm are described. Specifically, significant information density gains can be achieved by using an adaptive active location information gathering algorithm. The adaptive algorithm may select a compression and decompression encoding appropriate to deliver maximum information density while being adjusted automatically to accommodate variations including velocity and duration changes within a defined reporting period to ensure versatility and maximum efficiency.

12. A method comprising:
-
determining an adaptive interval when to record location information associated with a device without requiring a user to select a fixed time interval, or a fixed distance interval in advance; recording location information at each interval in the adaptive interval; compressing the location information; and transmitting the compressed information to a receiving device. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16)
