Possible to send GPS position to a online map?

[Guest Wumpscut]

Hi

I'm looking for a software for my HTC P3600 that can send my GPS position to a server that shows my position on a map on the internet.

Is this possible? What smartphone software and server software do I need for this?

Thanks

Well, I'm not sure about sending the position to a server, but Navizon and Windows Live Search both retrieve map data from the internet based on the GPS location.

Isn't this just a speed camera warning software?

Thanks, but I was more looking for a server software that I can use on my own webserver. But It was an interesting software none the less.

CoPilot - you can invite people to track you and the invites can be set for time periods.

GPSMelody sends your coordinates via a text message to any one you want....never got it working though on my qtek you maybe luckier you can also recieve coordinates via SMS then navigate to them

As Paul has shown, no it's got a position update feature as well, better still it's in the trial / free version (can't remember the exact licence description) :rolleyes:

Free for personal tracking, pay for camera functionality :rolleyes:

Ok, this is what I was after! Thanks!

But!

Does anyone know why I looks like this? http://www.cameraware.net/tracker.php?mid=117371

I traveld from "Gamlestaden" to "Tuve" by car. It look like I was flying over the city all day.

Wa-holy crap!

Do you have a REALLY poor quality fix or something? Which device?

Something is very confused, i'll check out the data in the DB.

I used the built-in GPS in my HTC P3600. It said that it had about 7-10 out of 13 sattelites. A couple of time I could se that it failed to send the data but the next time was succesful.

I will try to use a external GPS tomorrow. Is it possible to reset the map?

Perhaps this isn't the right forum for these kind of questions?

Thanks for all the help so far

It just hit me, could this be a problem that sweden uses , as decimal separator instead of . as in US and UK?

When I sent a mail with my position the link that was sent looked like this:

http://maps.google.com/maps?q=57,728923,12,013412

It should look like this:
