Take advantage of iPhone and iPad sensors and advanced geolocation technologies to build state-of-the-art location applications.

Learn how to build location-aware apps for both iPhones and iPads, using code that detects hardware features and then adjusts your app’s behavior.

If you’re a programmer with iOS experience, or a Mac developer familiar with Objective-C, this book helps you get off to a solid start in location-based app development.
You’ll learn about:

Core Location: Understand the significant-change location service and geo-fencing capabilities
Map Kit: Embed maps into your application’s views
Magnetometer: Use the on-board sensor as a digital compass
Geocoding capabilities: Translate geographic coordinates into place names, and vice versa
