1. A method, comprising:
- receiving information, by a device, from a remote server (302), the received information including at least one location reference enhanced by at least one focusing factor, the at least one focusing factor computed at the remote server (302) based upon encoded information corresponding to at least one path of the at least one location reference, and the at least one focusing factor comprising a search area suggestion from the remote server (302) for reconstructing the at least one path of the at least one location reference; and
reconstructing, by the device, the at least one path of the at least one location reference at the device, based upon the received at least one location reference enhanced by the at least one focusing factor;
wherein a default focusing factor is set and wherein the at least one location reference is enhanced by at the least one focusing factor before transmission, by the remote server, only upon the at least one focusing factor being different from the default focusing factor.

Abstract
A method and end user mapping device (200) are disclosed. In at least one embodiment, the method includes receiving information from a remote server (302), at a device, the received information including at least one location reference enhanced by at least one focusing factor, computed at the remote server (302) based upon encoded information corresponding to at least one path of the at least one location reference; and reconstructing the at least one path of the at least one location reference at the device, based upon the received at least one location reference enhanced by the at least one focusing factor.

13. A non-transitory computer readable medium including program segments for, when executed on a processor, causing a device to implement a method, the method comprising:
-
receiving information, by the device, from a remote server (302), the received information including at least one location reference enhanced by at least one focusing factor, the at least one focusing factor computed at the remote server (302) based upon encoded information corresponding to at least one path of the at least one location reference, and the at least one focusing factor comprising a search area suggestion from the remote server (320) for reconstructing the at least one path of the at least one location reference; and reconstructing, by the device, the at least one path of the at least one location reference at the device, based upon the received at least one location reference enhanced by the at least one focusing factor; wherein a default focusing factor is set and wherein the at least one location reference is enhanced by the at least one focusing factor before transmission, by the remote server, only upon the at least one focusing factor being different from the default focusing factor.

14. A device (200), comprising:
-
a receiver (250, 322) to receive information from a remotely located server (302), the information including at least one location reference enhanced by at least one focusing factor, the at least one focusing factor computed at the server (302) based upon encoded information corresponding to at least one path of the at least one location reference, and the at least one focusing factor comprising a search area suggestion from the remote server (302) for reconstructing the at least one path of the at least one location reference; and a processor (210) to reconstruct the at least one path of the at least one location reference at the device (200), based upon the computed at least one location reference enhanced by at least one focusing factor; wherein a default focusing factor is set and wherein the at least one location reference is enhanced by at the least one focusing factor before transmission, only upon the at least one focusing factor being different from the default focusing factor. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26)
