Geo WPS is a small, easy to use software that allows users to track your geographic position using Mac OS X wi-fi geo-tracking and other available hardware to detect your coordinate in the best precise way via Apple core location.
Geo WPS shows your position over a zoomable map. The map is updated live from the internet (almost all the world is mapped to a very high level) with possibility to zoom up to 18 levels.
Geo WPS can work with any Mac with airport turned on and an available internet connection (using any kind of connection, not necessarily via the airport, which is required to be on just to detect the wi-fi stations around).
In some way Geo WPS reassemble GPS features without a GPS (it can works only in area with mapped wi-fi signals, typically urban areas ) even when the sky is not visible
Geo WPS works perfectly in closed environments if it detects mapped wi-fi stations around. The map can be shown with the zoom level you prefer and maintaining this zoom level during position upgrade.
The map can scroll maintaining your position at the window center when you are moving (providing you are net connected, to calculate your position and show the current location map).
The map is interactive and user can drag scroll and drag zoom.
NOTE: Geo WPS can only be purchased via the Mac App Store (the buy link redirects you to its App Store page). To purchase/download applications via the App Store an Apple account is required.
