iPhone 2.0 api includes core location component.

Much like the Google Android platform, yesterdays annoucement from Apple includes news of a Location API as part of the iPhone OS which will allow third parties to develop location based applications, and most importantly enable any iphone application to make use of location.

iPhone Core Location API

Seen alongside Android there is now a critical mass of developers building moble applications which use location, and hopefully we will see the same level of innovation we have seen from the web in general.

For the geospatial industry this is fantastic news !
