1. Location Aware Devices  Location information can lead to creative applications  GPS hardware  cell tower positioning

2. Location Interface  Location hardware and J2ME interface  Obtaining a location provider Criteria c = new Criteria(); LocationProvider lp = LocationProvider.getInstance(c); Location l = lp.getLocation();

3. Location Interface  Location hardware and J2ME interface  Obtaining a location provider Criteria c = new Criteria(); LocationProvider lp = LocationProvider.getInstance(c); Location l = lp.getLocation();  Criteria – specify requirements for  power consumption  accuracy  altitude  cost allowed  (could be null)

4. Selected API  Criteria – specify requirements for power consumption accuracy altitude cost allowed boolean isValid() AddressInfo getAddressInfo() AddressInfo is a collection of fields (street, city, zip,...) AddressInfo interface:int getField() void setField(int field, String value) QualifiedCoordinates getQualifiedCoordinates()  Qualified Coordinates double getLatitude() [-90; 90] double getLongitude()[-180; 180) float getAltitude() float distance(Coordinate c)geodesic distance to given coordinates

5. Selected API  Location boolean isValid() AddressInfo getAddressInfo() AddressInfo is a collection of fields (street, city, zip,...) AddressInfo interface:int getField() void setField(int field, String value) QualifiedCoordinates getQualifiedCoordinates()  Qualified Coordinates double getLatitude() [-90; 90] double getLongitude()[-180; 180) float getAltitude() float distance(Coordinate c)geodesic distance to given coordinates

6. Selected API  LocationProvider LocationProvider getInstance() Location getLastKnownLocation() void setLocationListener(LocationListener listener, int interval, int timeout, int maxage) the attached listener will be called at the defined interval each update triggered within [interval, interval+timeout]  LocationListener interface – must implement the following methods void locationUpdated(LocationProvider provider, Location location) called periodically by the provider with the new location void providerStateChanged(LocationProvider provider, int newState) newState: AVAILABLE, OUT_OF_SERVICE, TEMPORARILY_UNAVAILABLE

7. Sample MIDlet ( From Knudsen ) void run() {// done in separate thread Criteria c = new Criteria(); LocationProvider provider = LocationProvider.getInstance(c); if (provider == null) {... } Location location = provider.getLocation(10); QualifiedCoordinates qc = location.getQualifiedCoordinates(); double lat = qc.getLatitude(); double lon = qc.getLongitude(); LocationListener listener = this; // The MIDlet provider.setLocationListener(listener, 4, 1, 1); } // MIDlet implements LocationListener public void locationUpdated(LocationProvider provider, Location location) { QualifiedCoordinates qc = location.getQualifiedCoordinates(); double lat = qc.getLatitude(); double lon = qc.getLongitude(); }

8. Simulating Device Location  WTK makes it possible to predefine a path of travel points  XML formatted description <waypoint time="0" latitude="90" longitude="105"/> <waypoint time="10000" latitude="90" longitude="82"/> <waypoint time="20000" latitude="90" longitude="59"/>

9. Simulating Device Location  Loading the path XML file while MIDlet is running XML file
