Abstract
A navigation information distribution system comprising one or more servers in communication with each other to parse embedded data attached to an electronic mail message. The servers are configured to receive an email including destination data associated with subscriber identification. Before parsing the embedded data, the server may confirm the subscriber identification included in the email is a valid active subscriber. After confirmation of the subscriber's status, the servers parse the destination data from the email and determine a location based on the destination data using a map database. After parsing, the server may receive a request for the location from a nomadic wireless device for downloading. The request from the nomadic wireless device may include the subscriber identification to associate the stored data on the server with the subscriber. The server may transmit the location for communication to the nomadic wireless device.
