Doc error for WifiLocalizationService #62

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
There are errors in the documentation for WifiLocalizationService:
svn/trunk/documentation/wifilocalizationservice/howto.html

1. "The demo applications are located in src/com/whereabout/whereami." -- no 
whereami directory exists.

2. "This document is divided into two parts. The first part explains how to use 
the WiFi localization service API to tag WiFi locations and localize. The 
second part explains how to use the demo apps." -- It appears the first part is 
in "howto.html" but the second part is missing.

3. Because of item 2 above, there seems to be no documentation for the Wifi 
localization demo, thus in-building location can't be tested.  

4. The SD card directory "/wifiscans/maps" can be discovered, but how to use it 
is not apparent.  Files ending in ".map" can be created, but there seems to be 
no user interface for defining the contents.  

5. When a JPEG image and latitude and longitude data is externally specified, 
attempting to define a point shows two empty pulldown menus and the map is 
never displayed.  The use of the "Mapping / Mark current location" page is not 
documented and is unusable.

Are <image> and <latlon> supposed to be unquoted strings or wrapped inside tags 
such as <string> or <double>?  Is <image> a file name within an undefined 
directory, or a pathname relative to an undefined directory?

The "wifiscans" directory sometimes gets files created with names of test 
points, but it is not clear what combination of actions causes that data to be 
recorded.  And all the "Pos" are "-1 -1", while "LatLon" are "0.0 0.0".  Maybe 
something isn't being initialized, but it is unknown whether that's a software, 
installation, or operational problem.
