10.3. Comparing Location Server API to Location Web Service APISo far in this chapter, you have seen both Microsoft Location Server Web Service APIs and the Location Server Management APIs and learned how to program with them. Since most of the API functionality is common across these two sets of APIs, I thought it would be a good idea to wrap up the discussion with a comparison table by pointing out key differences as shown in Table 10-3.
It is important to keep in mind that the applications built with the Server APIs always run in the context of the Microsoft Location Server Administrator, while the applications built with the Location Server Web Server always run in the context of a provisioned user. |
