## Locus Pro Maps Live-Tracking Web Server

This is a web api based on bottle.py to store location
information generated using Locus Map Pro Live-Tracking.

You can run the `./app.py` file in this project and
set up Locus on your Android phone to POST to the URL
where example.com
is the server you're running this on.
A JSON interface to the data collected is available at
the URL `/api/events`.
