 * Per the exactly one good source that I can find on this, ISBN 9783540367284, it's the didn't-really-catch-on name for what nowadays a lot of people think of as simply how maps work: one can be at a location and look up that location's map on a mobile 'phone. I'm not really convinced that this was ever documented enough, or caught on as a distinct concept, to satisfy our no original research policy.  It gets 1 sentence in that book.
