Me and Merkitys

Merkitys-Meaning.

I have just finished downloading and installing the application. I'm eager to play around with it and see the actual value of the service. From what I can tell, its quite accurate and reliable.

Dan Albritton and I have been talking about creating a mobile phone application that finds location via cell-tower strength. The tower information would be harvested through a (nightmarish) process akin to war-driving. A small group of researchers recently did something similar (or exactly the same?) in Seatle, which I will be looking into. Any help would be most welcome—in helping with development of the harvesting application (J2ME and/or Python), harvesting data, and testing the app once we have a critical mass of organized information.
