\title Qt Location C++ API
\brief Information about the Qt Location C++ API
The Location API provides a library for location positioning, mapping and navigation.
\tableofcontents
The Qt Location API provides the developer with a set of functions for determining
the current location and using that information with maps and places of interest.
Positioning information can be sourced from GPS satellites or a stream of data using
NMEA formatted text. Once a position is acquired we can monitor the updated
position to see if it moves into or out of a given region. With the Maps API
we can associate the position with a map in various formats supplied by a backend.
Then the Places API could be used to populate places on the Map or even
specify the current position as a place of interest and associate it with
an icon, contact details and other information.
The following table provides links to more detailed information on sections of the
Qt Location C++ API.
