Would you like to include a web-based tracking solution for your next project that can report your GPS coordinates from your cell phone? Do you want to do it for free? Here’s a great solution.
InstaMapper is a free application that you install on your phone, which continuously sends your GPS coordinates to their website, where they use the Google Maps API to generate a real time map of your location. You can choose the refresh rate to balance accuracy with battery life in your phone.
This would be a great tool for someone who might be doing something like bicycle across the country to raise awareness of lung cancer and to encourage followers to quit smoking. Whats more, they even have a Facebook app to embed the animated mapping software in your facebook account.
