Abstract:
1. A method of obtaining information associated with a location, the information being contained in a two-dimensional code close to the location, the method, when executed by the telecommunications device, comprising the steps of: (a) scanning the two-dimensional code through a camera in a telecommunication device, the telecommunication device comprising an ordered list of languages in which to display information; (b) decoding by the telecommunications device of the scanned two-dimensional code and obtaining a message provided in a plurality of bytes, wherein (b) determining by the telecommunications device if at least one language of the ordered list of languages of the telecommunications device coincides with at least one of the languages in which the information relating to the point where the two-dimensional code is located is stored in the two-dimensional code, then (c) accessing a server, through the telecommunications device, and obtaining a translation of the information relating to the point where the two-dimensional code is located; (d) accessing, through the telecommunications device, the translation through a unique key formed by the status byte, the latitude coordinate, the longitude coordinate, and the sequential identification number stored in the message together with the ordered list of languages of the telecommunications device; and (e) displaying the translation together with the longitude coordinate and latitude coordinate data as the information associated with the location.
