Hello, We can still have an application that simply reads GPS data from the phone and hits the Google Maps website with it, right? The site accepts long/lat. coordinates, and even has a satellite view mode (though the quality isn't as high as in Google Earth). Dave
Unfortunately it seems we cannot. Google maps API's terms of service allow you to use it in a website and not in a standalone non-Web application (FAQ clearly says that) And Google Earth requires the client to be installed on the machine that you use. So both ways are not valid :( The only doable thing I can think now is a client to compile information for the openstreetsmap project :( This license is against all the applications that I wanted to implement Bye and thanks, Alessandro On 11/27/06, Marcus Bauer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
