We will build a pilot application for testing the methods in an environment that simulates the real applications as closely as possible. We will build client-server architecture using table computer (server), laptop (high performance client) and pocketPC (low performance client). We will implement the following basic operations in the application:
· GPS-based navigation,
· Dynamic map handling
· Transferring location information (coordinates) from client to server,
· Transferring map fragments from server to client.

In the server, it is sufficient to handle simple requests for map fragments. In the client, we need to produce requests from the real or simulated location and send the requests to server. In addition to that, we will implement a sample application that utilizes the location-based information using map as background. The exact logic will be defined during the project but one potential application is surveillance of the movements of several clients. Example of such applications might be taxi center, rescue center, or fleet management center.
