Using GPS with Map Software

You can use the GPS feature of your phone to
provide approximate location data to a laptop
computer or similar device that is running interactive
map software such as that made by DeLorme or
Microsoft. This way, if your phone has good access to
GPS signals, your approximate position on a map
can be made available as you travel in a vehicle.
Using GPS with Map Software
To do this, connect your phone to your laptop (or
other device) with a data cable and set your phone to
transmit data (see "Getting Started" on page 66).
Your phone then provides your approximate location
to the device running the map software, which
displays your 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 Performance" on page 62
for more details on obtaining good location
information.
Note: Because your phone is continuously
determining your location, using the GPS
feature of your phone with map software
uses the phone's battery power quickly.
Software Compatibility
Your phone sends location information to your laptop
or other device using the standard National Marine
Electronics Association (NMEA) format. Your phone
supports output messages in NMEA-0183 format and
supports the following NMEA-0183 sentences: GGA,
GLL, GSA, GSV, RMC, and VTG.
The map software running on your laptop or other
device must support NMEA 3.0.
