Mapping

[martin bertram]

With Kendo UI, can one build apps for capturing GPS coordinates, saving to a database along with picture and text?  And also plotting multiple GPS points onto a map such as google maps?

Hello Martin,

 Currently this is not supported and at this point I cannot tell when we would provide such functionality out of the box.

Best wishes,

@martin, you can use W3C Geolocation API.

if (navigator.geolocation) {

  var timeoutVal = 10 * 1000 * 1000;

  navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(

    displayPosition,

    displayError,

    { enableHighAccuracy: true, timeout: timeoutVal, maximumAge: 0 }

  );

}

else {

  alert("Geolocation is not supported by this browser");

}

 

function displayPosition(position) {

  alert("Latitude: " + position.coords.latitude + ", Longitude: " + position.coords.longitude);

}

Regards
Andrew
