I want to display a signal bar for a GPS device using .NET CF. I'm able to read NMEA data and get the SNR signals. But they are a number of satellites with some active and some inactive with various SNRs. I thought about getting average of total SNR but it won't give a accurate value as three strong signal satellite is enough for GPS fix...
I've never coded anything for the iPhone but have written a GPS tracker for Windows Mobile, with the release of iOS4 I understand there have been some improvements to the multitasking story. Is is possible to log a GPS trail with an app running on the iPhone iOS4? Can you achieve this by running in the background or using scheduled pus...

Hi, I'm developing an android application that involves the detection of the users' location. What I would like to know is, how does this -> LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER work? Does it uses the GPS system in the phone or does it uses the mobile company's area network location? Whenever I turn on the GPS system in my phone, the map wou...
Can anyone point me towards good resource/information regarding gps chips/transmitters. Basically, I would like to transmit from a small, personal transmitter, at a frequency of maybe a couple of seconds(or less). I would want to consume this data with map like application. Sorry for the basic question, but is this possible? ...
I'm having trouble getting the GPS's onLocationChanged to run on a different thread. I understand how to manage UI thread when I'm calling a function but with the GPS, I don't actively call the function. My intent is to have a light flash every time the GPS receives a reading. I have put this function in a Runnable. I passed this funct...
I am a new developer and have a simple question that I have searched all over for, but have not found a clear answer yet... Simply put, I am developing an application that needs to be able to use GPS. The trick is however that I would like to use GPS to get a phone's location even if they have no carrier service. With that said I have...
I was wondering if my code was broken, or if even a jailbroken (multitasking activated) iPhone 3g maybe doesn't support this. I create a CLLocationManager, set the delegate and so on, and tell it to "startMonitoringSignificantLocationChanges". Whenever the app is then called, I log that to a textView. But nothing ever happens. Not if I ...
Hi Everyone! I'm not sure if this is relevant to this site or not, if not I apologize. I have a GPS device that's transmitting its coordinates to my server on port 5556. I know that its succeeding at doing this because I installed netcat and its monitoring this port, it does return a string. How can I capture whats returning and utili...

Hi, I'm trying to figure out how to calculate a min/max lat/long bound on the specific given range of a gps coordinate. for example: gps coord 37.42935699924869,-122.16962099075317 range .2 miles I'm looking at the point + range + bearing in the http://www.movable-type.co.uk/scripts/latlong.html site but im not sure if this is exactl...
It seems that in iOS4 the GPS updates are recieved with a 3-5 sec lag compared to the behavior in iPhoneOS3. e.g I start changing my location and I only receive GPS updates after a few seconds. I stop moving and the location updates only stop coming after a few seconds. (GPS reception at its best. That's not the problem.) In iPhoneOS...
I have just started working on my first Android application and am going ok. I have managed to get the app to locate my current position on a map and place the blue circle there. I can see the satellite icon in the notification bar working (satellite dish with rays coming off it). I am very new to android phones altogether but upon bein...
I'm trying to add a snap-to-road function in my all custom made GPS software. There's a few thousand of roads with hundreds of thousands of nodes (lat-lon points). I have read all those snap to road question in SO with "closest point on a line" as a good solution. However, what I am doing is to snap to a nearest road with the same direct...

I'm using Waze's Map Services as my map (waze.co.il). I'm familiar with network protocols and client side / forms development but not very familiar with web...

I have noticed that applications like GPS Status get a fix pretty quickly. When I try to get a fix within my own application it takes more time. Does anybody know why is this happening? Do they use a hidden part of the API to force the GPS to connect faster? Here's what I use LocationManager loc = (LocationManager) context ...
Hi, I have a circle which is actually a latlon position with a radius measured in meters. And I also have a road A-B defined as two lat-lon positions. How do I find whether that road cross inside the circle or not. Is it possible without projection latlon positions into xy positions? If possible please tell me how to do it. I'm actually...
