This can be done in two ways. 1. Run a Client software in the phone or PDA (eg. Java J2ME app) that gets the location of the phone and makes a http connection to the server and send the lat lon at a designated frequency. 2. The mobile network can use a 'location server' that queries the location of the phone at frequent intervals and update a database. Hope this helps William Alexander www.m-indya.com |
