“…The characteristics of recent handheld devices do not put strong constraints on the type of information that can be provided to a user (from simple text to multimedia). There are several possibilities for wireless data communications (Wolisz 2000). The best known in the last years are the GPRS (General Packet Radio Service) and HSCSD (High Speed Circuit Switched Data) technologies based on the 2.5 generation of GSM (Global System for Mobile Communication) and more recently in some countries, the EDGE technology based on third generation of GSM networks (GSM World 2003).…”

Recent developments of the communication technologies in the last years opened a new dimension to Geographical Information Systems and Geoinformation Technologies. This new dimension is mobility. It is simplifying data gathering, processing and presentation independent from the area of application. A new branch, Mobile Geoinformation Technologi es, is based on wireless communication systems, mobile personal computers, positioning systems and GIS. There are some proprietary GIS software solutions for mobile or handheld devices available on the market, but they are more focused on data logging tasks than providing full powered GIS support or data processing functions. In this paper, we propose a mobile implementation of the free and easily expandable GRASS GIS software in combination with the GNU/Linux operating system run on handheld devices. This approach supports real time in the field computations, data processing and cooperation of several active mobile clients using wireless networking.

“…Let us also assume that this device has an Internet connectivity, which however does not necessarily imply that it has an own, permanent IP address. In fact, we cannot even assume, that the end-user's device will be sending/receiving IP packets, as usage of special proxies might be quite attractive (see for example [9], this issue will be elaborated in the talk in more detail).…”

Modern telecommunication networks promise new perspective in information access at any time, from any place. On the other hand recent spectrum auctions made it clear, that the transmission capacity (at least for wireless access!) becomes really an economic issue. In this talk we advocate the thesis, that both flat rate and usage based charging of the end-users are structurally wrong, and discuss an alternative dual charging model.
