I am using my laptop, I want to show my location on the map without using any GPS devices.
How to Show my current location on map
Hi Khalaf,
If you want to implement that, the most important things is find a data provider to replace GPS device.
Here is some suggestions for you:
1. Write a function to dynamic generate points in a area, then set a timer to get the random point and refresh map.
2. Create a file which contains many location, read the point from it one by one then render it on map and refresh map.
3. Find some 3rd part software to simulator provide GPS location, then write your class to read the GPS information from COM.
Wish that’s helpful.
Regards,
Don
To show your current location on a map using ThinkGeo UI for Desktop without GPS devices, you can utilize Wi-Fi or IP geolocation services to estimate your location based on your internet connection’s IP address and display it on the map.
Thanks for your ideas, Brent.
