Task

Make an an app to draw a picture with GPS

Write an Android application to collect your GPS positions
It should support a "pen up" and "pen down" button
It should support multiple colors rgb=([0-255], [0-255], [0-255])
It should keep track of "strokes", which are sequences of GPS tuples when the pen is down

Uploaded 4/2/15 1:00pm Code is provided here. These are the things that you interact with:
Internal code:
All of this code should be in your workspace. The only thing you should need to edit are the package names so that they match yours.
The basic idea is that you instantiate one StrokeManager in your Activity and use it to hold the points that you capture for the LocationManager.
When you are ready you call the StrokeManager.upload() method to transfer the points to the server
Look at the documentation

It should support an "upload" function, which will send all the recorded strokes to a server for display
The server will support viewing all the strokes of one drawing after they have been uploaded
- Link to server U/I: http://djp3-pc2.ics.uci.edu/ICS163/gpsdraw/
- Try entering "group_name" and "drawing_name" to see an example trace
The server will be provided
We expect the coding will take about 8 hours

Go out and make a drawing with your app
You should plan it before you go out
You can use multiple devices if you appropriately plan your various id's
Your drawing can be of anything you want
We are expecting something on the complexity of these: butterfly,snail, dollar sign. The distance isn't important.
For calibration, a smiley face would be a C, a block lettered word would be a B, a well-executed multi-colored anteater would be an A.
We expect that the drawing would take about 3 hours
Your grade will be adjusted based on how your group rate's your performance.

Submit the group_id, the drawing_id, the members of your group, and a short explanation of your drawing via a EEE quiz
Evaluate your group using this quiz.

Check to see if the server is online by checking if it has an Apache webserver running: http://djp3-pc2.ics.uci.edu/, you should see
```
It works!
```
, if you don't then contact Prof. Patterson
Check to see if the software that runs the API is working (doesn't use Apache): http://djp3-pc2.ics.uci.edu:9020/version, you should see
```
{"error":"false","version":"Spring 2015 ICS 163 server"}
```
, if you don't then contact Prof. Patterson
Check to see if the web interface to the API works: http://djp3-pc2.ics.uci.edu/ICS163/gpsdraw/index.html, you should see a form asking for the group and drawing name. Enter "group_name" and "drawing_name" to verify the web interface is connecting to the API. If it doesn't, contact Prof. Patterson.
Once you have an Android application running, you can check the API log by going here:http://djp3-pc2.ics.uci.edu/ICS163/gpsdraw/luci-utility.log
