Location-Based Marketing Application Development Made Easier with GeoSimulator
Download as PPTX, PDF1 like352 views
GeoSimulator is a patent pending platform for development of location based solutions. Current development/testing methods requires deep knowledge of GIS computations. It involves handling complex GPX, KML files or dealing with limited locations in IDEs. Inevitably application developers spend more time in location functionality rather than business logic or user interfaces. GeoSimulator takes the location specific complexity out of the application development process with its simple few-lines-of-code integration. Apart from development, testing becomes simpler and cost efficient due to the fact that it can be done straight from the desk as opposed to field testing. The presentation explains all the salient features of this testing and development platform.

Location-Based Marketing Application Development Made Easier with GeoSimulator
- 1. NisosTech GeoSimulator A platform for location based solutions development & testing (patent pending) Nisos Technologies http://nisostech.com
- 2. Current Development/Testing Methods Geolocation Based Applications Development: 1. Highly technical and convoluted – requires knowledge of GIS computations. 2. Involves handling complex GPX, KML files or limited locations in IDEs 3. Application developers spend more time in location functionality than application business logic or User interfaces. Current Location Based Solutions’ Testing Methods Limited To: 1. Field Testing (validated by likes of NaviTek etc.) 2. Limited Geolocation Simulation Offered By xCode and Android Emulator (validated by mobile app developers) 3. Manually creating GPX/KML files to satisfy client requirements for application performance guarantee
