Groundspeak's Geocaching iPhone Application

Geocaching is a global treasure hunting game where participants locate hidden containers, called geocaches, outdoors and then share their experience online.

Groundspeak's Geocaching iPhone Application Features:

• Direct access to Geocaching.com's database of worldwide geocaches
• Search by current location, address or lookup code
• Access geocache details, including description, hint and recent logs
• Save geocache listing for quick retrieval
• Navigate to geocaches with a simulated compass arrow
• Look up trackable item detail, including item goals, while on the trail

Future updates will include logging geocache finds and filtering your hides and finds from the Geocaching.com search results.

Supported Devices

Groundspeak's Geocaching Application is best supported by the iPhone 3G but it is also compatible with the iPod Touch and 1st generation iPhones.

Please note: You will need Wi-Fi access for the application to work on the iPod Touch. Also, without GPS, compass navigation will not work on the 1st generation iPhone.

How it works

The iPhone 3G uses a combination of GPS, Wi-Fi positioning and cell towers to determine your approximate location. Groundspeak's iPhone Application then queries the Geocaching.com database in real-time and provides a list of geocaches near you. The application can also geocode addresses, search using a location from your address book, or look up a geocache by it's GC code.
