| Summary: | Mobile phones are no longer just a tool for communication in our daily lives; they now act as a multi-purpose instrument that helps us with our daily activities. We often tend to forget the minute details such as where did we park our car, our room number. To aid in this inconvenience in our daily lives, a mobile application could come in very handy for our day to day use. To develop such an application, it is necessary to identify a platform that would have the maximum reach and have a hassle free development. To this purpose the Android operating system was found to be most suitable.
Throughout the project various software engineering methodologies were used as well as extra consideration when developing software for mobile platforms. Steps to create an effective and robust application were followed. After thorough research and brainstorming, the functionalities of the application were decided to include Geotagging, the process of acquiring the location of the current position via network or GPS and tag the data to the photo, a gallery to display pictures taken that specific application, and a map activity to point to the location that the picture was taken. |
