ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a method and system for enabling a user to determine a desired geographical route between supplied locations. To this end, a means is employed for supplying to a central processor information identifying geographic locations. The central processor, after correlating the identifying information to geographic locations, generates routing directions for travel between the two locations. The routing directions are made available for outputting to the user through a plurality of output devices.
