MIDP: Location API Developer's Guide v2.0
This updated document describes the Location API for Java ME (JSR-179), which enables the development of location-based mobile applications. The three main features that the Location API brings to mobile programming are obtaining device location information, the possibility to create, edit, store, and retrieve landmarks, and the possibility to obtain device orientation information. This document also describes and illustrates the architecture of MIDP: Location API Example - Tourist Route.

MIDP: Location API Example - Tourist Route
This Java MIDP example demonstrates the usage of the Location API for J2ME (JSR-179) by showing the current device coordinates. The MIDlet also shows how to store the current coordinates associated with location information to the device’s landmark store. The example complements MIDP: Location API Developer's Guide.

JSR 179 Location API for J2ME™version 1.0.1 - HTML javadoc version
This is the Final Release version of the JSR-179 Location API for J2ME specification developed under the Java Community Process. This specification defines a J2ME Optional Package that enables mobile location-based applications for resource limited devices. The API is designed to be a compact and generic API that produces information about the present geographic location of the terminal to Java applications.This API covers obtaining information about the present geographic location and orientation of the terminal and accessing a database of known landmarks stored in the terminal.
