SYSTEM FOR CONNECTING TO WIRELESS LOCAL AREA NETWORKS WHILE IN MOTION TO SEND AND RECEIVE GPS DATA AND OTHER INFORMATION TO A WEB PORTAL OR SOFTWARE APPLICATION

摘要

A process for detecting and connecting a GPS-enabled device to available inrange wireless local area networks (WLANs), particularly while the device is in motion. Once connected, the GPS enabled device sends and receives data and other information from a web service or software application. The process includes detecting relative movement speed of the GPS device and repeatedly attempts connections with new WLAN access points when in motion, particularly in excess of five miles per hour and/or twenty-five miles per hour.
