Systems and methods of using the systems for delivering information
related to an inaccessible location to individuals at the inaccessible
location are disclosed. The system comprises a memory device affixed to
the inaccessible location, the information related to the inaccessible
location residing on the memory device, and a portable memory reading
device, separate from the memory device, that retrieves the information
from the memory device when positioned at the inaccessible location and
communicates the information to a party located at the inaccessible
location. The system may further comprise a database wherein the
information residing on the memory device is replicated and the database
can be accessed by a user of the system via a suitable communications
medium or combination of mediums. The system may also comprise a portable
memory reading device having a GPS receiver positioned at an inaccessible
location and a database, such that the GPS coordinates of the
inaccessible location are determined by the portable memory reading
device and communicated to the database over a communications link, and
the database communicates the information related to the inaccessible
location back to the portable memory reading device over the
communications link.
