摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a location information acquiring system for raising efficiency in communication and reducing a communication cost concerning a location information acquiring system for acquiring location information of a terminal such as a traveling object, based on requests from a plurality of service servers. SOLUTION: A location information acquiring server 100 receives the requests to acquire location information of the terminal 10 from a plurality of service servers 200, 201, etc. When the location information acquiring requests are received from each of the service servers 200, 201 by different timings and also when the timings are similar each other (e.g., at every fixed time), the similar timings are integrated. Thus, the up-link of location information is requested to the terminal 10 by the integrated timings. COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI
