Using GPS with Map Software You can use the GPS feature of your Smartphone 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 Smartphone 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 Smartphone to your laptop (or other device) with a serial data cable and set your Smartphone to transmit data (see "Getting Started with Map Software" on page 137). Your Smartphone then provides your approximate location to the device running the map software, which displays your location on a map. Your Smartphone provides an updated location every second and the map software displays your changing location on its map. See "Enhancing GPS Performance" on page 134 for more details on obtaining good location information. Note: Because your Smartphone is continuously determining your location, using the GPS feature of your Smartphone with map software uses the Smartphone's battery power quickly.
