FixPhrase.com uses an open source, patent-free algorithm to convert latitude and longitude into a set of four words from a word list. Those four words (a FixPhrase) can be put back into the algorithm to get the original latitude and longitude.
FixPhrases can be shorter than four words too if less accuracy is required. The first two words will locate a city, the first three words will locate a neighborhood, and all four words will locate the corner of a house, the pitcher's mound in a baseball field, or six adjoining parking spots.

The words in a FixPhrase are ordered alphabetically, and each word is taken from a different portion of the word list. This means the words in a FixPhrase can be entered in any order but will always translate to the same location.
