<p>A good time to celebrate it and to announce it to the world through a nice PR, that is enclosed here. The<a href="http://corp.8motions.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/opencellidpr.pdf"> PDF version</a> is vailable too.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">For immediate release<br />
</span><strong><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;" lang="EN-US">OpenCellID, the biggest open source database of CellID announces a major milestone.</span></strong><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;" lang="EN-US"><br />
</span><span lang="EN-US"><br />
<strong>Bordeaux, France<br />
</strong>7 April 2009</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><br />
8Motions, the company behind the <strong>OpenCellID</strong> effort announced today that the OpenCellID database reached last month a major milestone with <strong>300 000</strong> (three hundred thousand discovered) cells in April. CellID is an alternative technology to GPS for mass market phones and provides location information to users based on GSM cell towers. OpenCellId.org ( </span><a href="http://www.opencellid.org/" target="_blank"><span lang="EN-US">http://www.opencellid.org</span></a><span lang="EN-US"> ) offers APIs and tools to use this database in mobile applications.</p>
<p>This database is created using a crowdsourced approach, thanks to support of hundreds of<br />
enthusiast developers and companies supporting the project. One of these companies is <span> </span>Birkett Entreprise finalist of 2008 Navteq developer challenge with his “phone locator” product . Alex Birkett declares: &#8220;OpenCellID is a fantastic resource for people wishing to make location aware applications using open, non-proprietary technology. Birkett Enterprise is delighted to have been able to contribute data to the project.&#8221; Other developers have created clients for Blackberry, J2ME, Windows Mobile, Symbian and OpenMoko devices demonstrating the industry interest for this approach.</p>
<p>Aurelien REGNAULT,co- founder of <strong>8Motions</strong> declares: &#8220;OpenCellID is the first viable alternative to<br />
commercial CellID approach and enable smaller companies to provide compelling mass market LBS enabled application. We initially created it for our internal needs, but we are amazed by the success of this effort&#8221;</p>
<p><strong>About 8Motions:</strong></p>
<p>8Motions provides service and technologies for mobile mapping applications, including the &#8220;Mobile Map Toolkit&#8221;, an easy to use component to embed maps into a mobile application available in J2ME and soon iPhone.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>One of <a class="zem_slink" title="J2memap" rel="wikipedia" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/J2memap">J2memap</a> user wanted to use the application with the <a href="https://lwuit.dev.java.net/">LWUIT framework from Sun</a>. So, after some research, it appears that only one modification was needed: a callback to notify the host that the screen needed to be repainted.<br />
This has been done by adding a new callback in the mapDisplayListener:<br />
asBeenRepaint();</p>
<p>So here is the code of the&#8221;MapElem&#8221; that can be easily added in a LWUIT environment</p>
<pre name="code" class="java">

class MapElement extends Component implements MapDisplayListener {

private final MapDisplay map;
private com.sun.lwuit.Image buffer;
private javax.microedition.lcdui.Graphics bufferGraphics;
private boolean painted;

public MapElement() {
this.map = new MapDisplay();
}

public MapElement(final MapDisplay map) {
this.map = map;
}

public void paint(final com.sun.lwuit.Graphics g) {
if (!painted) {
map.sizeChanged(getWidth(), getHeight());
buffer = com.sun.lwuit.Image.createImage(getWidth(), getHeight());
bufferGraphics = new ImageWrapper(buffer).getGraphics();
map.addListener(this);
}
map.paint(bufferGraphics);
g.drawImage(buffer, 0, 0);
painted = true;
}
// Pass LWUIT Component events to the map
// -------------------- Start ----------------------------//
public void pointerDragged(int x, int y) {
map.pointerDragged(x, y);
}

public void pointerPressed(int x, int y) {
map.pointerPressed(x, y);
}

public void keyPressed(final int keyCode) {
map.keyPressed(keyCode);
}

public void keyReleased(final int keyCode) {    }

public void keyRepeated(final int keyCode) {
map.keyRepeated(keyCode);
}
public boolean mapKeyPressed(MapDisplay arg0, int arg1) {
return true;
}

public void onMoveEnd(MapDisplay arg0) {    }

public boolean oneLocationSelected(MapDisplay arg0, Marker arg1) {
return true;
}

public void hasBeenRepaint(boolean completed) {
repaint();
}
}
</pre>
<p>You also need the ImageWrapper class , available here:</p>
<pre name="code" class="java">

package com.sun.lwuit;
public class ImageWrapper {
private final Image image;

public ImageWrapper(final Image lwuitBuffer) {
this.image = lwuitBuffer;
}

public javax.microedition.lcdui.Graphics getGraphics() {
return ( javax.microedition.lcdui.Graphics) image.getGraphics().getGraphics();
}
}
</pre>
<p>Update: the lwuit getGraphics don&#8217;t return anymore an LCDUI graphics, but an Object that need to be casted to an LCDUI Graphics</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Update of the SDK, with several improvment</p>
<p>* Already present in the latest version, but not yet announced here:<br />
- Architecture rework, with the ability to display the map on a different canvas (not only his own canvas)<br />
- Marker can have their own Style (MarkerStyle) shared between several markers. Note that by default, you still can use the old mode and change the<br />
colors and pins attribute on the Marker, because the default style use<br />
them directly.</p>
<p>* Several simplification: everything related to &#8220;typeSat&#8221;, &#8220;isSat&#8221;, and so on: satelite is just treated as a map like others. So to display YahooSat just do MyMap.setMap(&#8221;YahooSat&#8221;);</p>
<p>* The numSat is dropped too, as the list of mapping provider is dynamic. See belo, use setMap using a name if this sat is in listOfMap or setMap(MapOverlay) .</p>
<p>* Ask.com has been removed from the default map (they now use Microsoft maps).</p>
<p>* <a class="zem_slink" title="OpenStreetMap" rel="homepage" href="http://www.openstreetmap.org">OpenStreetMap</a> has been added in the list of default map provider.</p>
<p>* The &#8220;generic layer&#8221; support new quadtree URL</p>
<p>These should be minor changes from the external point of view, just by removing a few vars in your creation but this should clarify the usability.</p>
<p>Other improvment:<br />
- the ressampled mode is much better<br />
- cached map reactivation. You can put map in your jar file, or in the file system. A tutorial on this later.</p>
<p>The samples has been updated to reflect this. As usual, you can go to the <a href="http://j2memap.8motions.com">J2memap web site</a> to dowanload it&#8230;</p>
