    9. What's up then? Features
      • Easy to use
      • Adapted to small touch screens
      • A GIS data viewer of vector, raster and remote data
      • A GPS receiver
      • A simple editor for vector data
      • Tools to measure distances, areas, get information of local and remote data
    10. Screenshots
    11. Architecture
      • Based on gvSIG internal architecture
      • Platform
        • Java ME: CDC 1.1, PP 1.1
        • AWT + some J2SE classes +DLLs (JNI)
      • Challenges
        • JVMs: from J9 IBM (non free) to PhoneME (GPL)
        • From Desktop to Mobile
        • To build an easy GUI
        • Performance issues
    12. Next release
