LocatioNet Releases LBS Application Suite - LocatioNet MyMap
May 8, 2003
LocatioNet, the developer of location-based service system for the wireless
market, announced the release of LocatioNet MyMap - a first to market
integrated suite of graphical location-based service (LBS) application
modules. MyMap allows users to view their own location, find and navigate
to points of interest, and interact with friends in their immediate vicinity.
The application focuses on rich user interface and graphic display, showing
users location and retrieved information over detailed color maps and
aerial photos.
MyMap takes full advantage of the latest mass-market 2.5 and 3G handsets
with their large color displays, J2ME, WAP, and MMS support. The WAP version
provides a universal commonly supported interface, while the J2ME version
offers enhanced usability with Java enabled features such as context-sensitive
soft keys, the use of a joystick to scroll maps, and built-in menus.
MyMap's service modules are well integrated. For example, a user can
locate his or her friend, search for points of interest in the vicinity
of that friend, and receive the optimal route to such points. Mobile users
can also share such location information visually, by sending MMS messages
containing color maps with retrieved items to their friends and family
from within the MyMap application suite.
Commenting on their latest development, LocatioNet's VP marketing and
sales, Mr. Arnon Dembo said, "As wireless operators are looking for effective
ways to drive up migration to the newest handsets and encourage the use
of advanced capabilities such as MMS, Java and GPRS, our latest application
suite helps operators by leveraging these technologies to provide a very
attractive user experience as a strong drive to the latest network capabilities
and handsets."
LocatioNet MyMap uses the LocatioNet Platform technology for privacy,
authentication, authorization, billing, positioning, and content. It also
relies on the LocatioNet GIS engine for map rendering, geo-coding, reverse
geo-coding and routing.
