Application Development….

•Download and install SDK starter package 1.1 •Install Eclipse Galileo 3.5

•Plug in Android Development Tool for eclipse

•Integrate with the Google Maps API

11

Features of Mobile Application….

•Accepts inputs for multiple locations

•Locations can be added when required by the user •Plotting the Destinations in order

•Show Directions

12

Features of Mobile Applicationcontd….

•Calculates the Distance

•Estimated Drive

•Maps the route between the destinations

13

User Interface….

17

Implementation Issues….

• Getting the MD5 Fingerprint to add the MAP API key to the application

• To draw out a route between the locations

18

Limitations….

• Google android platform doesn’t support the API to display the path

• Not able to obtain the most optimal route

19

Future Improvements….

• Invalid Addresses

• Auto Fill Feature

20

Deployment On Phone….

• Generate .apk file

• Get the Astro File Manager from the Android Market

• Install the application
