gps

Hi Everyone,

I am trying to port my incomplete GPS application to Drupal. I am using Zend Framework and Google Maps V3 API for development. Could anyone recommend contributed modules available in drupal that I can use for Location and Mapping during my development.

Welcome Everyone,

First of all, Happy drupling :-). In this group, we want to try to share knowledge on anything related to Drupal, ASYCUDA and any technologies to enhance trade facilitation.

Feel free to share any best practices in these areas and post any queries you might have and will try as much as we can to share what we know.

All the best!

Welcome drupal users. Share your ideas, experience, tricks and best practices on drupal usage and development.

So for the last few days I have been trying to get a map to show up on my image node with the location of where the image was taken. I have verified my image has gps data in it and turned display fields "well known text" which displays :

Location:
POINT(3.4636986915691 50.434256459725)

how ever when its set to gmap no map shows up on my page.

Attached as a jpeg is my devel output form my node, which has the following:

geo
gis type = point
wkb

geo and wkb have some odd chrs in their.. guess its coded gps data.. ?

I've just released some "proof of concept" code at http://drupal.org/project/whereis, it's an application that runs on your Symbian phone (Nokia S60), queries your GPS for your lat/long, and sends your coordinates to Drupal using XMLRPC.

At the moment, Drupal will receive a node id, latitude and longitude, and it will simply update the location-enabled node with the new coordinates.

This is all at a very basic level at the moment, but in the future it opens up many possibilities - think Google Latitude style functionality for Drupal.
