The Autodesk LocationLogic Platform is a carrier-grade location platform that allows developers to deploy high performance applications by providing:
- Location-enabling services
- Network connectivity
- Tools for development
- Carrier-grade, highly scaleable architecture
- Content for North America and European countries
- Usage reporting
Application developers are able to use the services provided by LocationLogic in any order or combination to provide different end user services targeted at specific consumer segments. This allows the developer to focus skills and knowledge on the service without the need to invest time and effort in non-core areas, as these functions are supplied by LocationLogic. The services exposed by LocationLogic include:
- POI searches
- Routing
- Mapping
- Maintaining user profiles
- Event and subscription management services
The platform exposes a suite of services through well-defined, standards-based interfaces for handset and web application development. The platform can be accessed using BREW, Java ME or XML APIs. This allows the platform to be loosely coupled with the application making use of the services without requiring knowledge of the underlying implementation.
