GMap.NET - Great Maps for Windows Forms & Presentation - Home. Mapping with a GPS and C# Download source - 32.25 KB Introduction This article shall describe a very simple approach to working with a GPS device within the context of a C# application.
This article does not address how the GPS device works or everything that can be gleaned from the NEMA 0183 string outputted from most GPS devices; rather, the article is intended for those just interested in getting the present position from a GPS and using that point to do something interesting like show you where you are on a map. Nothing exotic or expensive was used in this project; the GPS source was a provided by my Garmin eTrex Legend handheld GPS purchased for about $100.00 (a nice little GPS but not the high end to be sure). Since my laptop provides no male serial ports, in order to connect the device I needed an adapter; for this I opted to purchase a Belkin Serial Port to USB adapter (an F5U109) which works great; the cable used to connect the device to a computer was provided with the device. Which API do I need? - Google Maps API.
