First Apps - GPS

Although the network location is accurate enough for what I need, I decided to have a quick play with the GPS functions. Interestingly, it's possible to obtain your current speed and altitude using the methods. The altitude is taken with respect to the Geoid however, and is not particularly useful to most people.


The accuracy is low in this screenshot as it was taken indoors, but it is possible to get accuracy of within less than 1m outdoors. The timestamp is in Unix time, that is, milliseconds since Jan 1st, 1970.

  1. Can anyone tell me how to develop apps for Arduino maga ADK easily.
    Eclipse needs lots of programing knowledge.
