Mobile Application Using Location Based Service

[sreejond]

Hello everyone,
Actually I want to do a project in my 4'th year Project/Thesis which will be a mobile application. The feature will be, suppose you are visiting Dhaka, capital of Bangladesh. Suppose in Dhaka city there are several place named as "X", "Y", "Z", Now suppose you are in the place named as "X" and you want to go place named as "Y", as you are new in Bangladesh you can use you mobile set to find out how to go to the place "Y" from "X". I actually don't know is it a big project or not, but my Supervisor will be satisfied if I can make it for my campus area. I don't know is GPS necessary here? Can anyone guide me how can I accomplished this task?

Thanks in advance

If you don't have any experience programming, then yes it will be a big project.

I think you can do it without the gps, if its only within your university area, you should show the users a list of place from which they pick where they are right now, and you should show a list of places where they want to go to, when the pick that, you can show a predefined image or the directions.
