Geospatial developer guide for Android NDK (C)
Learn how to use the Geospatial API in your own apps:
Sample app and codelab
If you want to run a sample app that demonstrates the functionality described
here, see the
ARCore Geospatial Quickstart for Android
for Java. The sample app in the Quickstart is written in Java. The code samples
in this document are for the same functionality written in C.
Development requirements
If you're new to developing with ARCore, see Getting started
for information about software and hardware requirements, prerequisities and
other information specific to the platforms you are using.
Be sure your development environment satisfies the ARCore SDK requirements, as
described in the Quickstart for Java.
