If you’ve been excited about Windows Phone 7 development and the platform being Silverlight for application development, you probably rushed and downloaded all the tools (which are free by the way).  You may have even got the samples from the SDK and noticed the Location services example…but wondered why it doesn’t work.

If you are just getting started, I created some quickstart videos to help you through some of the basics.  You can view them here.

In case you haven’t figured it out: Location services (aka, GPS) is not emulated in the developer tools CTP. 

As you might expect, this makes it difficult to play around with location-based applications.

The API in Windows Phone 7 revolves around the GeoCoordinateWatcher class.  This class is what you would initialize to start listening for events:

   1: GeoCoordinateWatcher watcher = new GeoCoordinateWatcher(GeoPositionAccuracy.Low);
   2: watcher.StatusChanged += new EventHandler<GeoPositionStatusChangedEventArgs>(watcher_StatusChanged);
   3: watcher.PositionChanged += new EventHandler<GeoPositionChangedEventArgs<GeoCoordinate>>(watcher_PositionChanged);

As you can see, this watcher class looks for Status and Position changes.  The status is about the device peripheral itself (initializing, reading, etc.).  Position is more likely what you are interested in and would give you the details of where the device is reading the current location (longitude and latitude).  In the emulator right now the status will always return Disabled.

It’s relatively simple to simulate this, and here’s a really simple mock class for doing so.  Now, note this is not a complete emulation of the Location services APIs for Windows Phone 7 SDK.  This mock is to simply simulate a coordinate location and position changing.  The GeoLocationMock class implements the IGeoPositionWatcher<GeoCordinate> interface for mocking the location service.  There is a Start, Stop, PositionChanged and StatusChanged methods and events (TryStart is implemented, but simply calls Start).  To implement the mock in your application you would instantiate watcher (using above sample) as IGeoPositionWatcher<GeoCoordinate> instead of the GeoCoordinateWatcher specifically.  Here is a sample, and then an explanation:

   1: public partial class MainPage : PhoneApplicationPage
   2: {
   3:     IGeoPositionWatcher<GeoCoordinate> watcher;
   4: }
   5:  
   6: private void StartLocationService(GeoPositionAccuracy accuracy)
   7: {
   8:     if (watcher == null)
   9:     {
  10:         GeoCoordinateEventMock[] events = new GeoCoordinateEventMock[] {
  11:             new  GeoCoordinateEventMock { Latitude=34.4, Longitude=11.2, Time=new TimeSpan(0,0,5) },
  12:             new  GeoCoordinateEventMock { Latitude=31.4, Longitude=21.2, Time=new TimeSpan(0,0,1) },
  13:             new  GeoCoordinateEventMock { Latitude=34.3, Longitude=28.2, Time=new TimeSpan(0,0,2) },
  14:             new  GeoCoordinateEventMock { Latitude=32.4, Longitude=34.2, Time=new TimeSpan(0,0,3) },
  15:             new  GeoCoordinateEventMock { Latitude=31.2, Longitude=37.2, Time=new TimeSpan(0,0,4) },
  16:             new  GeoCoordinateEventMock { Latitude=33.73, Longitude=39.2, Time=new TimeSpan(0,0,5) },
  17:             new  GeoCoordinateEventMock { Latitude=31.87, Longitude=41.2, Time=new TimeSpan(0,0,6) },
  18:             new  GeoCoordinateEventMock { Latitude=11.81, Longitude=42.2, Time=new TimeSpan(0,0,7) }
  19:         };
  20:     
  21:         watcher = new EventListGeoLocationMock(events);
  22:         watcher.StatusChanged += new EventHandler<GeoPositionStatusChangedEventArgs>(watcher_StatusChanged);
  23:         watcher.PositionChanged += new EventHandler<GeoPositionChangedEventArgs<GeoCoordinate>>(watcher_PositionChanged);
  24:     }
  25:  
  26:     watcher.Start();
  27: }

The ‘watcher’ is created using a list of geo location points in this sample above.  Now this could be some web service that does IP address reverse lookup or use hard-coded examples as well like I’ve done above.  Using this mock above and replacing it in the LocationServiceSample in the SDK, here’s what my screenshot shows:

Geo location services mock for Windows Phone 7

So you can see I can start the GPS emulation and simulate subtle position changes (or drastic ones if I wanted, aka maybe a social network map application of sorts).

Hopefully this little snippet will be valuable to play around with or expand upon for your needs.  If anything, you can create some emulation of the behavior temporarily.  The mock object used in a modified LocationServiceSample project can be downloaded here: LocationServiceSampleWithMock.zip.

Hope this helps!

UPDATE: Peter Torr actually had another geo location mock in his MIX10 talk which his code is now available for download.  It is much more comprehensive emulating accuracy, etc.  The above is a simpler approach, but both will get the job done depending on what you really need/want to emulate.

Hi Ben -- 1) Camtasia; 2) there are many services out there that do this already, including Bing Maps API that will give you a centroid lat/long based on a zip code.

Can Windows Phone 7 be used as a cyclocomputer? It's very similar to that of VeloComputer (velocomputer.com) for Android-based devices that support GPS.

I really want to forget about Android because with so many features of Windows Phone 7 that I really liked, it's going to make it hard for me to choose between Android and Windows Phone 7 when WP7 comes out.
4/28/2010 6:50 AM | # re: Simulate Geo Location in Silverlight Windows Phone 7 emulator
Thanks for the article Tim, it is definitely useful to make up for the missing emulator features.

I encountered an issue while using it though, the PositionChanged triggering event throwing an UnauthorizedAccessException in method RaisePositionChanged of the GeolocationWatcherMock class.

This probably came from the fact I am attaching a delegate to this event from my ViewModel (using MVVM). I fixed the issue by modifying this bit:
if (PositionChanged != null)
{
Deployment.Current.Dispatcher.BeginInvoke(() =>
{
PositionChanged(this, args);
});
}

It does not throw the exception anymore. Do you have any comments, suggestions about this modification?

Always read the terms of use for any Web service you plan to consume in an app. Seriously, resist the temptation to just scan them, especially if you plan to distribute your application to users through Marketplace. You owe it to your customers to understand the service-level goals and other conditions set by the partners who provide the services your app consumes. So make sure you read and understand the terms of use, whether your app is consuming a service from Microsoft or from any other party.

Silverlight proves again why it is a powerful development platform for creating engaging, interactive applications for many screens across the Web, desktop, and mobile devices. Thank you for tipping this info. In addition a business that wishes to raise money on a stock market or to be owned by a wide range of people will often be required to adopt a specific legal form to do so.

That is because the so called "iPhone Emulator" is a simulator (hence the real name is "iPhone Simulator"). Simulators are non-native programs re-written for that computer. Emulators are non-native programs not re-written they are emulated which takes extra effort to translate everything to display the right things etc. This is why the Windows Phone 7 Emulator is slower than the iPhone Simulator.

Is there any way I can schedule the app to get the location or maybe keep the app running in the background to save the battery ?
