Abstract: Telephone (installed and mobile) and pager billing statements can be significantly enhanced if the call log information was summarized and presented by visual means, such as maps. A method and system is described herein to deliver telephone and pager call log details through one or more maps embedded within or provided with telephone and pager billing statements. Beyond the traditional tabular call log list, the invented system offers maps, which display the physical locations relevant to calls geo-referenced to a map (location of placement and reception). Calls are represented in the map either individually and/or are summarized by the number of calls, the timing of the calls, the charges applied to the calls, the call categories (incoming, outgoing, daytime, nighttime, peak time, off peak time etc.), local-area and none-local-area calls, sensitive calls, geographic unit, or any combination thereof.

Abstract: A method and system is described herein to summarize and present charge-card transactions through one or more maps linked to charge-card billing statements. In addition to a conventional tabular transaction list, the invented system provides charge-card transaction maps, which display the physical location of points-of-charges geo-referenced to a map. Transactions are listed individually and/or are summarized by the number of transactions, the timing of transactions, the amount of transactions, the transactions categories, local-area and none-local-area transactions, sensitive transactions, geographic unit, or any combination thereof. The method and system integrates database and geographic information system technology with a rule system.
