<div class="descr"> <a name="details"></a>
<p>The Qt Positioning API provides positioning information via QML and C++ interfaces.</p>
<p>Currently the API is supported on Android, iOS, macOS, Linux (using <a href="http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/GeoClue">GeoClue version 0.12.99</a>), Windows (with GPS receivers exposed as a serial port providing NMEA sentences), and WinRT (using Windows.Devices.Geolocation).</p>
<a name="overview"></a>
<h2 id="overview">Overview</h2>
<p>The Qt Positioning API gives developers the ability to determine a position by using a variety of possible sources, including satellite, or wifi, or text file, and so on. That information can then be used to for example determine a position on a map. In addition satellite information can be retrieved and area based monitoring can be performed.</p>
<a name="getting-started"></a>
<h2 id="getting-started">Getting Started</h2>
<p>To load the Qt Positioning module, add the following statement to your .qml files</p>
<pre class="qml">
import QtPositioning 5.2
</pre>
<p>For C++ projects include the header appropriate for the current use case, for example applications using routes may use</p>
<pre class="cpp">
<span class="preprocessor">#include <QGeoCoordinate> </span>
</pre>
<p>The .pro file should have the <i>positioning</i> keyword added</p>
<pre class="cpp">
QT <span class="operator">+</span><span class="operator">=</span> positioning
</pre>

<a name="overview"></a>
<h3 >Overview</h3>
<p>Positioning includes all the functionality necessary to find and work with geographic coordinates. It can use a variety of external sources of information, including GPS. This provides us with a coordinate and altitude for the device with additional features such as speed and direction. This provides the fundamental location information used in the API.</p>
