Abstract
In embodiments, given a surface that has domains on it and a first location, a second location is generated in the surface. The second location belongs in the same domains as the first location, and does not belong in the same domains as the second location. An advantage can be that, in embodiments, the second location can be used in lieu of the first location. A use case can be where it is desired to protect the privacy of location data of an entity, such as its address.
