Windows Location Provider (LocationAPI) of Windows 8.1 or 10

[ZaADCA]

Hello,

Have you ever used Windows Location Provider (LocationAPI) of Windows 8.1 or  10 to retrieve the GPS coordinates of GPS present in the computer or tablet?

If so can you, please, help me on this?


Thanks in advance.

There are actually two different API options. One is the COM based C++ API described here which would require you to write a C++ DLL in order to access the COM interface and translate it into a LabVIEW callable VI functional interface.

The other is the .Net based API described here. This should be callable through the LabVIEW .Net nodes directly without the need to dive into C++ or C# programming. But I can't help you with how to do that.

Thank you. I have seen this but I do not know how to implement it in Labview. But thanks much for your help.
