###Trip Tracker
This is an Android app I threw together in a few hours to do periodic GPS location tracking on a phone and send the GPS coordinates to an HTTP server.
Enter a URL that accepts POST requests, choose a poll interval, and tap "Enable Tracking". The Android location manager will return a GPS location every so often around that interval (it is not exact) and the information will be POSTed to your URL.
The POSTed parameters are a locations array, each element being a hash
including time (a Unix Timestamp from the Location service), latitude and
longitude (two float values of arbitrary precision), and speed in meters
per second.
There is some error handling for when you travel out of reach of data service or the server is not responding properly. Location points are stored in a queue and retried until they are received by the server with a 200 HTTP status.
####Disclaimer
I wrote this to track my location on a long trip to display the coordinates on a map. This application does use a background service, but a persistent notification/icon is displayed. Please don't disable that in order to use this application for creepy stalking (there are probably much more stealthy apps available in the Market to do that, ok?)
####Building
ant debug installshould do it
