Site Selection Data Analysis and System
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method for site selection data analysis, comprising:
- providing a distributed computer network for site selection data analysis comprising a computer and a plurality of databases each coupled to a computer network;
providing an interface associated with a selected site location for receiving site selection data from the computer, wherein the site selection data comprises quantifiable values associated with business operating expenses;
selectively retrieving rates from a rate database, wherein the rates are selected based on the site location and site selection data, and including rate databases wherein the rates are updated dynamically;
providing an algorithm for calculating monthly and annual values of the site selection data and calculating a data set using the algorithm;
transmitting the data set to the computer to be displayed on a display device; and
storing the data set and site selection data on a data storage device.

Abstract
A method for site selection data analysis, including providing a distributed computer network for site selection data analysis with a computer and a plurality of databases coupled to a computer network and providing an interface associated with a selected site location for receiving site selection data from the computer. The site selection data may include quantifiable values associated with business operating expenses. The method also includes selectively retrieving rates from a rate database, where the rates are updated dynamically and are selected based on the site location and site selection data. The method also includes providing an algorithm for calculating monthly and annual values of the site selection data and calculating a data set using the algorithm. The method also includes transmitting the data set to the computer to be displayed on a display device and storing the data set and site selection data on a data storage device.

8. A computer-implemented method for site selection data analysis, comprising:
-
providing a distributed computer network for site selection data analysis comprising a computer and a plurality of databases each coupled to a computer network; controlling access to an interface by authenticating the computer and permitting access to the interface; providing the interface to the computer for receiving at least one site location and site selection data from a user, wherein the site selection data comprises water usage, electricity usage, natural gas usage, net profit, property value, wastewater usage, business type and business units; selectively retrieving rates from a rate database, wherein the rates are associated with the site location and site selection data, and where the rates are updated dynamically; providing an algorithm, based on the rates and site selection data, for calculating monthly and annual values of the site selection data and calculating a data set using the algorithm; transmitting the data set to the computer to be displayed on a display device; and storing the data set and site selection data on a data storage device. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)

15. A computing system for site selection data analysis in a networked computing environment comprising:
-
a login logic for authenticating a client and permitting access to an interface for pre-determined jurisdictions; a data retrieval logic that retrieves, upon authentication of the client, at least one site location, values associated with business operating expenses, rates associated with the site location and values from a plurality of databases, wherein the databases are dynamically updated; a calculation logic that provides a algorithm based at least upon the values and rates, where the calculation logic executes the algorithm to produce a data set; a display logic that provides a visual representation of the data set on a display device; and a storage logic that stores the data set and values in a data store. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
