We introduce a new approach to meteoroid stream identification, based on a distance function involving four geocentric quantities that are directly linked to observations; the new distance function is thus defined in a space that has as many dimensions as the number of independently measured physical quantities, at variance from the conventional orbital similarity criterion of Southworth & Hawkins. Two of the new variables turn out to be near-invariant with respect to the principal secular perturbation affecting meteoroid orbits, the one associated with the cycle of omicron.
