geolocation

I have a form on my website where a user enters an address of a place. When they submit the form, I convert this location into latitude/longitude and store this in a MySQL Database. I am using Google's Geocode service for this conversion. The problem is that I can't find either a class or a service to convert that latitude/longitude back to an address and as far as I know, Google's Geocode service is a unidirectional conversion. I realize I could store the physical address in the database, but over time this is wasted space when it could be stored in a simpler format. Does anybody know of

What i have done so far: i'm developing an application where i have to display more than(50K) points/Markers on the Navteq map divided into different segments. for example: if i have 50K points i will divide all points into different segments. if i divide 50K points into 50 segments each segment would have 1000 points (may not be 50 segments , it may depend). right now it is working but it takes long time and hangs to render all the points on the MAP.so that i would like to perform segmentation displaying to display only few points with clustering. so that i can get an idea of how the segment

I have my own location class. I have an odds result that when I search for the GPS location using my class, I get 0, 0 back. Whereas if I search the getLastKnown function in location manager for GPS, I get the forced value: public Location getGPSloc(Context c){ isGPSavailable(c); if(gps_enabled) lm.requestLocationUpdates(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER, 5000, 0, locationListenerGps); timerGPS = new Timer(); timerGPS.schedule(new GetLastLocationGPS(), 45000); return gpsLoc; } This is the class that I'm calling from outside the function, I am using this.getApplicationContext() in the call. This is

I would like to make a request for the web service - Google Geolocation API by using PHP 5. I have experience in XML parsing using PHP, but this one is using JSON format for making the request. I have no idea how to make the request! I think to receive the request is similar the XML parsing! https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/business/geolocation/ try this(result in json format): public function getGeoPosition($address){ $url = "http://maps.google.com/maps/api/geocode/json?sensor=false" . "&address=" . urlencode($address); $json = file_get_contents($url); $data = json_decode(

Hi I'm trying to figure the best way to execute a PHP script inside Joomla! I want to redirect users if they are not from X country (already have a database and the script) I found this extension but I want to make my own stuff http://bit.ly/daenzU 1) How could I execute the script once for each visitor? Working with Cookies? 2) As I'll put the script inside Joomla! template, I'll modify templates/XXX/index.php 3) Based on 2), Joomla! loads templates/XXX/index.php each time a page loads, so I have to avoid redirection script to be executed twice for an user Thanks in advance for your ideas and

I am working on React native project and there I am taking location permissions. Also I have to track location permissions always like if user has given permission access after install the application and then after sometime user goes to the app settings in device settings and disable/revoked the permissions. Again once app comes from background to foreground, I have to check permission based on that, Needs to show the messages. So that, I am using Appstate. But, In Android strangely, After installed the application, If user denied the permission with "Dont show again" checkbox, Then Appstate

So I am working on this app that will get the location of a wifi hotspot by just detecting it using the sensor wifi of the phone (The phone is not actually connecting to the hotspot wifi, it just detect). I was doing some preliminary research before start developing the app, and it seems that the Google Geolocation API will do the work for me. However, it is not free (at least what I understood after reading through the API). I had checked other apps that detects wifi hotspot, and I am just wondering if those apps have their own database with all the wifi hotspot information (SSID, location
