1. A method for dynamically specifying location collection and computation logic, the method comprising:

  • receiving a request for location data from an end device;

    loading the location data from at least one electronic database;

    determining whether an algorithm version number is indicated in the request and whether the algorithm version number indicated in the request equals a latest algorithm version number;

    embedding the location data and an algorithm for location collection and computation in a stream, if it is determined that the algorithm version number is not indicated in the request or that the algorithm version number indicated in the request is not equal to the latest algorithm version number;

    embedding only the location data in the stream, if it is determined that the algorithm version number is indicated in the request and that the algorithm version number indicated in the request is equal to the latest algorithm version number; and

    streaming the stream to the end device.
