WebDeviceLocation

it is very simple to use, get gps once or permanent.

just drop the WebLocation into a window and add the events via context menu.
i made a project sub folder Certificate with the “windows app name.crt” file
using a build step to copy this beside the executable file.
in build settings you set the ssl port.
you must be sure you made this ip:port accessible from outside / web.
you can use any dyndns provider.

at windows pc

CMD

as Admin

and register your service once
sc create XojoFotoDoku type= own start= auto binpath= "C:\Users\Markus\Documents\MR_Xojo\Foto Doku\Builds - Foto Doku\Windows 64 bit\Foto Doku\Foto Doku.exe"

at windows i set the service to a user account because i want save data there.

at windows pc you have to stop the service to overwrite it with a new executable / build.

as example once to get users location.

Sub Opening() Handles Opening
  System.DebugLog CurrentMethodName 
  
  Me.Request(True)
End Sub

at error you would see that you need https.

Sub Error(error As RuntimeException) Handles Error
  System.DebugLog CurrentMethodName + " " + error.Message
  
  TextLocation.Text = "Error "+ error.ErrorNumber.ToString + " : " + error.Message
End Sub

Sub LocationChanged(latitude As Double, longitude As Double, accuracy As Double, altitude As Double, altitudeAccuracy As Double, course As Double, speed As Double) Handles LocationChanged
  System.DebugLog CurrentMethodName 
  
  here you get the position data
End Sub

my .crt file looks like

-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
MIIC2DCCAcCgAwIBAgIJALoha5fQvq6cMA0GCSqGSIb3DQEBBQUAMBsxGTAXBgNV
...
E7tvwI2D3FyFPn7D
