Hi,

 

i want to build a K2 Five Application. The application wil have a form and a driver (that will have the K2 Workspace Mobile App) will access a form and select "Start Job".

The application should then track his GPS coordinates and log it to a SQL Server table every 5 minutes.

The location services control has "Start Watching" and "Stop Watching" which seems like the things i want. But i am not sure to what i am limited to.

 

Now what drawback does this have?

 

Considerations:

- The app should be able to still "watch" for location changes regardless of the driver's actions (closing the app, offline, etc)

- Google Maps integration for retrieving estimated times

- Google Maps integration for sending location coordinates and or address names at certain intervals

 

If you have any suggestions, please dont hesitate to add it
