QGIS on Android gets GPS support
January 31st, 2012 | Posted by in Android | Android QGIS | C++ | GIS | QGISLately I’ve been working on adding native GPS support to QGIS on Android, here is a short video showing how it works. A big thanks goes to the municipality of Schoten in Belgium which sponsored the developement. This functionality is included in the latest nightly builds as of yesterday.

Is this a plugin we can download? Or will this get released into a future nightly build of QGIS?
You’re bridging the gap for a much anticipated feature to make QGIS very usable in the field!

Thanks Marco! Brillant!
Very, very nice. Congratulations! Nice work!

Well done Marco !

Thanks Marco!
It was really simple to install Qgis. But which is the App for GPS tracking ? Is it the usual GPS layer import ? Then what are the right configurations?
Just turn on the gps panel and hit connect. Autodetect should work. If not try internal. Ciao
Sorry but i just dont get it. Which panel? In qgis? Maybe ilnstall it again… did it 4 days ago-on trasformer with android 3.2.1. But probably i am just a little bit silly.
view -> panels -> gps
