Design and Implementation of the LBS Interface for Personnel Positioning
The realization of the personnel positioning base on LBS for the application is to make a socket based connection first and get the location information from the port of the LBS platform according to some interface specifications. To ensure the location service of the application stable and reliable, a short connection was proposed to solve the disconnection problem caused by network communication quality, and the asynchronous mode for data transportation was chosen to improve the real-time responsiveness of that interface. According to the specific needs for personnel locations, there are two ways to request location: calling the one or calling the group, which make the location services more flexible and convenient. The applying of this interface to a real application system for customer service management shows that the application system has a perfect interface to the LBS platform and obtains a fast and stable personnel positioning service.
