Summary
This chapter showed you how to use geolocation in the browser to generate a position that can be used to display an interactive map. With the ability to track a position and display and update interactive maps, a number of augmented-reality games can be built in the browser. This includes scavenger hunts, geocaching, proximity-based games, and more. The hope is that putting geolocation tools in your arsenal can open up a new world of HTML5 games that breaks gaming outside of its normal confines.
