    Abstract: The present invention comprises a system for creating a multi-user internet community site with location-based information (Geographic Information System). Location-based information is maintained by the community of users in a manner similar to blog content (text, photos) and is managed in a manner similar to presently existing multi-user sites (such as Flickr.com, MySpace.com, TheFacebook.com). Community groups, organizations, or individuals can create a free or fee-based account and launch their own multi-user website with a location-based component. All information has a location-based component. Location information can be added and updated through a variety of geospatial reference methods (e.g., latitude and longitude, or UTM, or State Plane). Either by using GPS-collected data, or through direct user interaction with the map (e.g., a user can click on the interactive map and store information with spatial references).
