geolocation

For my development system I'd like to be able to set the Geolocation (Lat, Long) in Chrome so that when I'm doing the testing the browser thinks I'm at location X when I really might be at location Y. Does anyone know how to force Google Chrome to use a Lat and Long that I provide as the location? If you're talking about the Geolocation API, you can override the function: navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition = function(success, failure) { success({ coords: { latitude: 30, longitude: -105, }, timestamp: Date.now() }); } So when a library calls into the navigator.geolocation

I'm trying to test LocationService example of Android developer as per following link http://developer.android.com/training/location/retrieve-current.html . At that time, error message show me that " The import com.google cannot be resolved " for following 5 lines. I'm really confused how to solve this problem. import com.google.android.gms.common.ConnectionResult; import com.google.android.gms.common.GooglePlayServicesClient; import com.google.android.gms.common.GooglePlayServicesUtil; import com.google.android.gms.location.LocationClient; import com.google.android.gms.location

I'm writing a mapping application that I am writing in python and I need to get the lat/lon centroid of N points. Say I have two locations a.lat = 101 a.lon = 230 b.lat = 146 b.lon = 200 Getting the center of two points is fairly easy using a euclidean formula. I would like to be able to do it for more then two points. Fundamentally I'm looking to do something like http://a.placebetween.us/ where one can enter multiple addresses and find a the spot that is equidistant for everyone. e.James Have a look at the pdf document linked below. It explains how to apply the plane figure algorithm that

I have found a bunch of answers for this question using mysql , but I wasn't able to convert anything into a query ms sql 2008 can use. I have a longitude and latitude column for each row in the database. I am going to have a latitude and longitude for where the user is. I want to be able to find all rows that are within x miles from the user's latitude/longitude. Also when trying to use other queries I found on SO I keep getting the error - 'pow' is not a recognized built-in function name. which is weird , because I'm pretty sure that I have used pow before in sql 2008. Any help with this

What is the difference between LocationClient and LocationManager . What is the pros and cons between them (like battery, accuracy)? Which is better to use? Naresh R Location Manager was introduced in Android SDK and can be used as a feature of android. Location Client is something that's part of Google Play SDK and is introduced in the recent Google IO 2013. One can understand that since Location Client is the latest, it is more efficient in getting the location with minimal energy(battery drain) with greater accuracy. UPDATE: LocationClient is deprecated. You have to use GoogleApiClient . An

Still very new to Swift. I have come from an Android background where there is BroadcastReceiver that can deliver location info to a service even though the app isn't running. So I was looking for something similar in iOS/Swift and it appears that before this wasn't possible but it may be now. I am developing for iOS 10 but would be great if it was backwards compatible. I found startMonitoringSignificantLocationChanges which I can execute to start delivering location updates, although this raises a few questions. Once I call this and my app is NOT running, are the updates still being sent ?

I'm currently having an issue with geolocation in a webview. I have a webapp. I'm currently not using phonegap or any other mobile framework. I've been unsuccessful at getting the built-in html5 geolocation javascript api to work on an application that runs in a webview in an android app. The site works fine otherwise from the chrome browser on android 2.0+ (geolocation supported). I'm compiling against android api version 5. I've read this post already Phonegap's solution of writing a proxy which wraps the built in call and uses the host activity instead is good, but I'd prefer to use the

I implemented the "bearing" formula from http://www.movable-type.co.uk/scripts/latlong.html . But it seems highly inaccurate - I suspect some mistakes in my implementation. Could you help me with finding it? My code is below: protected static double bearing(double lat1, double lon1, double lat2, double lon2){ double longDiff= lon2-lon1; double y = Math.sin(longDiff)*Math.cos(lat2); double x = Math.cos(lat1)*Math.sin(lat2)-Math.sin(lat1)*Math.cos(lat2)*Math.cos(longDiff); return Math.toDegrees((Math.atan2(y, x))+360)%360; } You just have your parentheses () in the wrong place. You are adding
