Maps

Map handling

Map can be panned and zoomed

Pointing mode can be used for:

• setting a destination

• measuring a distance

• creating a waypoint

• editing a waypoint

• sending co-ordinates

• sending a waypoint

Locating friends

Friend Find

• Track and find other VetroPhone Esc! users

• Locates other users on a map and guides you to them

• Sends and receives position by SMS

• Update:– last known position– time stamp– speed and direction– battery status

• Tracking

Safety

Emergency function

• One-touch emergency button

• Sends up to five SOS message with the user’s location and a voice connection is opened to a predefined number

GPS positioning • GPS ; satellite positioning is based on a system maintained by the

US Military • There are 24 active satellites in the sky and the GPS-receiver in

the VetroPhone Esc! is able to receive signals from the satellites • The position determination works outdoors and takes place once

the device receives signals from at least three suitably positioned satellites

• Accuracy of the position depends on the satellite coverage, which is affected by solid objects and weather; e.g. cloudiness, snow, surrounding tall buildings and heavy tree cover

• Accuracy of the GPS positioning is about 10 meters• The position is represented as co-ordinates, e.g.

N 21°45‘27” E 21°45‘27” • The system shows position as a point on a map

Positioning technology

Network Positioning Support

• The VetroPhone Esc! is positioned primarily by the GPS system

• Service centre can request the GSM network parameters

• For calculation of the position you need a separate server, available from VetroPhone Partners

• Accuracy of the position depends on the distance between a base station and the device and between the different base stations

• Accuracy of the network positioning is at its best about 100-400 meters and the positioning also works indoors

Positioning technology

Assisted GPS- fast initial position

• Capability to receive assistance to the GPS receiver in order to quicken the initial position calculation

• Requires a third party station server• Used if the phone is in bad satellite coverage• Assistance over the MPTP binary coded

protocol• Message will contain ephemeris and UTC

time• Rough position e.g. GSM network. (Cell-ID, CI-

TA)

Software Development Kit (SDK) for developers

Software Development Kit (SDK)

• The tool to make your maps wireless

• Provide basis for personal navigation

• The VetroPhone SDK 1.0 gives you tools for downloading and managing maps, and it also consists specifications needed for building up a complete LBS and map service with POI and waypoint support for VetroPhone Esc!

• The VetroPhone SDK 1.0 is available for standard C/C++ Windows software development platforms

Software Development Kit (SDK)

The SDK includes:• software librarys• demos• sample programs• protocol documentation of

• Mobile Maps Service Protocol (MMSP)• Mobile Phone Telematics Protocol (MPTP)• VetroPhone AT commands• ETSI AT commands

• white paper• presentation about SDK

Mobile.lib

• Mobile library offers basic functions for creating and closing connection to the mobile phone and checking the state of the connection

Mmsp.lib• Mmsp library offers functions for deleting maps, retrieving map information from the mobile phone and for sending maps to the VetroPhone Esc!

EscApi.lib• Escapi library offers functions for making tiles of bitmap files and sending bitmaps to the mobile phone

zlib.lib• zlib is a compression library which is used for compressing the map before downloading it to the mobile phone
