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.

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.
To do this, connect your phone to your laptop (or other
device) with a data cable and set your phone to
transmit data (see “To connect your phone to your laptop or other device:” on page 118). 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.
