This project was created in anticipation of a road trip across the country that I a took in July – August 2009. It was designed for a BlackBerry 9530 which comes with a built-in GPS unit and I though it would be cool to be able to track my progress across the country. The Blackberry sends periodic GPS updates to the website which uses a database to keep track of the data it receives. The data is then overlayed onto a Google Map which is then used to determine distances to major landmarks around the country. See a sample of the project here: www.jasonernst.com/trip Current features include:

• Co-ordinate tracking
• Remote database storage of co-ordinates (minimal use of device memory)
• Mapping of co-ordinates onto Google maps via a web interface
• Basic statistic collection (average speed, time to destinations etc.)
• Geographic Photo Gallery
• User Comment System
• Simple Visitor Tracking
• Tested on Blackberry Storm 9530
