I have been visiting some services api website but can't find what I am looking for. My question is more aimed at what resources to use rather than how exactly it should be done.
My iphone app requirement is to be able to track users that are nearby, are commuting and locate them on map. Additional requirement maybe texting them, call them, have video session with them etc. On a high level, this will convert to something like
- get user details based on longitude and latitude
- get to know if they are registered users of the service subscribed
- Sending message to user/users
- Call user using iphone phone api or dedicated app session
- Video call
Waze is one of them. While it is open source, there is quite less documentation on how one can use it as backend for real time traffic data.
Then there is this Geoloqi which is paid, but has iOS SDK as well as rich api. However I cannot find sections that are useful to me when I look up to my requirements listed above. What I believe is that there must be many apps already relying on such a useful service. If any of them are open source / tutorials, it would be most useful resource for me for feasibility of geoloqi. Geoloqi also charges users for using their api, so it is also important for me to know what features come at what price .
