With the open source Geo2tag platform, developers can use JSON or XML to manage location references in apps for Nokia X and Nokia Asha phones. In this webinar, we’ll show how to use the Geo2tag API and how to manage a local database of georeferences. We’ll begin the training by introducing the fundamentals of Location Based Services and the REST API of Geo2Tag LBS Platform (www.geo2tag.org). We’ll focus on networking, JSON and web services. Then we will demonstrate several applications developed on top of Geo2Tagand share the newest enhancements to the platform. We’ll end the training with a discussion of integrating Geo2Tag and third-party map widgets.
