Using GPS with Map Software
You can use the GPS feature of your phone to
provide approximat e location data to a laptop
computer or similar device that is running
interactive map software such as that made by
DeLorme or Micros oft. This way, if your p hone has
good access to GPS signals, your approximate
position on a map can be made available as you
travel in a vehicle.
To do this, connect your phone to your laptop (or
other device) with a data cable and set your phone
to transmit data (see “G etting Started” on page
101). Your phone then provides your approximate
location to the device running the map software,
which displays you r location on a map . Your phone
provides an updated location every second and the
map software displays your changing location on
its map.
See “Enhancing GPS P erformance” on pa ge 96 for
more details on obtaining good location
information.
Note:B ecause your phone is continuo usly
determining your location, using the GPS
feature of your phone with map software
uses the phone’s battery power quickly.
