users to store and manipulate large amounts of
data from GPS and other sources.
It is software systems with capability for input,
storage, manipulation/analysis. It displays
geographic (spatial) information in various
output formats such as maps, graphs or charts.
It is a system which deals with all types of

mobile software.
There are three common representations of
