Provided is a method, wireless communication device and computer program product for generation and communication of a geographic route (525) from a first device to a second device. The method involves presenting a reference map (505) using the first device; receiving route input using the first device, said route input (520) indicative of the geographic route relative to the reference map; processing said route input with respect to a reference coordinate system (545) to generate processed route information (540) indicative of the geographic route; and communicating said processed route information to the second device. The method may further involve receiving and processing processed route information, using the second device, the processing performed at least in part based on the reference coordinate system and an output reference map (630) to generate route output (620) indicative of the geographic route relative to the output reference map; and presenting said route output using the second device.
