This time, we’re actually talking about an iPhone exclusive app, since GeoPedia needs a network signal in order to provide positioning. GeoPedia takes advantage of the iPhone’s geographic positioning functionality via Google Maps My Location (available starting with firmware v1.1.3) to display Wikipedia articles relevant to one’s current position. The third party app sounds like one of the best, if not the best intended with the iPhone so far, keeping in mind however that users are required to jailbrak their iPhone in order to get it up on the device. Once launched, GeoPedia will display an iPhone-OS-like interface with a list of Wikipedia articles, a feed, if you will, customized to one’s current location/the iPhone’s location. However, GeoPedia will not automatically refresh once you change your position/location: “As your location changes, simply refresh GeoPedia and the feed will update. As mentioned above, GeoPedia only works with Apple’s iPhone. iPod touch users will not be able to benefit from this third party app since the touch doesn’t connect to att network.
