APRS-Go is a Windows Mobile implementation of the APRS (Automatic Packet Reporting System) protocol.

The most frequenty used packet type contains station position (in latitude and longitude), station icon (automobile, house, bicycle, whether station, and many others) and free form comments. A typical APRS station includes a VHF transceiver, special APRS modem, GPS, computer and APRS software.
