distinguish the invention over the art of record. Therefore, the particular numbers
used to segment the longitudinal and latitudinal boundaries in the claims would
have been obvious variants of those described by Galaty.
Element 21 - wherein such imagery is used to develop the imagery content
of a documentation package, shown by Moonshop.com at p. 5.
Element 22, which describes a global view, intermediate view and local
view shown by Moonshop.com at p. 5, 6 and 10. This element describes the intent
of the views, and is therefore aspirational rather than functional, thus creating 3
pictures. Such an indication of intent describes a limitation on the intended field of
use, but does not distinguish the invention over the art. As to providing 3 views,
this is a species of the number of views provided well within the foreseeable range
of the number of views suggested by moonshop.com, particularly because it was
notoriously well known at the time of the invention to copy whatever views of
maps were desired with the then existing map atlases.
Element 25, wherein, for each parcel, a documentation package containing
the Deed of Claim and its associated location-oriented imagery is developed, and
assembled in paper or computer disc format, is shown by moonshop.com at p. 5.
Element 30 describes the social purpose of the organization recited in
element 29. Such an indication of intent describes a limitation on the intended
field of use and is aspirational rather than functional, and does not distinguish the
invention over the art.
Claim 18 extends the subject matter claimed in claim 17 to documentation of
planets, which is, again, a limitation on intended use that does not distinguish the
invention over the art.
