The rapid developments in the amount of mobile devices and in the mobile technology, as well as the surge of positioning technology in the mobile devices, have created a user base and demand for location-aware mobile applications. The authors of Hovering information, AD LOC, and Abiding geocast have presented systems, which main idea is to bind information to geographical locations in ad hoc mobile networks. We will call these kind of systems as Distributed Location-Aware Hovering Information (DLAHI) systems. DLAHI systems are decentralised, distributed, scalable, and generally lightweight. They are also human-driven meaning, that by default anyone should be able to create, share, and access information.
