WapAtlas Client is a location aware Java application which runs on many mobile phones which have built in GPS. It uses the phone's GPS capabilities and the phone's WAP browser to quickly and easily open maps showing the current location.
It works in the following way:
* WapAtlas client uses the phone's GPS receiver to determine the current location
* It then uses phone's browser to open the WapAtlas.mobi web site, passing the latitude, longitude and other parameters to the site opening a map centered on the current location
* WapAtlas client then closes automatically and control passes to the browser allowing the user to pan, zoom and search for another location
WapAtlas client does not contain any geographic data and as a result has a small footprint on the phone.
