    references about GPS in Java
    What are you looking for? Sounds like you need to do a Google.
    I don't know of anything in java specific to GPS.

    You'll want the Location API, JSR-179.

    What do you mean by "support GPS"?
    Many GPS device manufacturers have their own interfaces. Then there is the NMEA standard.

    As I said before: Many GPS device manufacturers have their own interfaces.
    I had to write methods to receive and parse the coordinates for each different device I used.
