Abstract: A computer-implemented method for providing a searchable aggregated data structure for a networked application. Source data in a plurality of formats is acquired from delivery service computers associated with food or beverage delivery services over a communication network. Acquired source data includes, for each of the food or beverage delivery services, data representing multiple source menu items. Acquired source data is mapped according to a predetermined data format. Formatted data is linked to common sources of the source menu items based on identification data. Common menu items among the source menu items are identified, and, for each identified common menu item, the source menu items are associated with a master menu item. Linked data and master menu items are combined into a master data set. The master data set and the identification data are imported into the searchable aggregated data structure.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for providing a searchable aggregated data structure for a networked application. Source data in a plurality of formats is acquired from delivery service computers associated with food or beverage delivery services over a communication network. Acquired source data includes, for each of the food or beverage delivery services, data representing multiple source menu items provided by multiple restaurants. Acquired source data is mapped according to a predetermined data format. Formatted data is linked to common restaurants based on restaurant identifier data. Common menu items among the source menu items are identified, and, for each identified common menu item, the source menu items are associated with a master menu item. Linked data and master menu items are combined into a master data set. The master data set and the restaurant identifier data are imported into the searchable aggregated data structure.

Abstract: An example computer-implemented search method. A location of a user communication device over a network is determined. A search request from the user communication device is received via an interactive application. A database is queried based on the location and the search request. The database stores data representing a plurality of menu items from a plurality of food or beverage delivery services for a plurality of restaurants, and includes data associated with the plurality of restaurants. If restaurants within a predetermined range of the determined location are associated with the received search request, the restaurants are linked to food or beverage delivery services. Data representing the food or beverage delivery services is combined onto a rendered page of the interactive application. Selection of at least one menu item is received. For each delivery service, cost for delivering the selected menu item to the determined location is estimated.
