Hello I'm implementing a client-server GPS application. Client side is a J2ME midlet that sends GPS location via HTTP/XML to a Java Webservice (Tomcat servlet). The servlet stores positions in SQL database. The other client app is a web browser that can login and see the actual position of midlet using Google Maps. This client is writte...
InstaMapper is a GPS tracking service that updates the device's position more frequently when the device is being tracked live on the InstaMapper webpage. I'd like to have this happen all the time so I thought I'd write a python script to login to my account and access the page periodically. import urllib2, urllib, cookielib cj = cook...

I'm looking since quite a long time something like a CLLocationManager simulator that would enable me to simulate GPS positions (CLLocation instances that could be retrieved through the CLLocationManager standard delegate mechanism) along a predefined route for instance (with a KML or GPX file as input, or whatever, but KML would be ni...
I'm using myLocation = mLocationManager.getLastKnownLocation(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER); to retrieve the current location at the start-up of my application. As the Android documentation states, this location can be "out-of-date", since the method returns the location when the GPS was used the last time. How can I actively reque...
