How to use installed GPS systems in iPhone

I want to ask a user which GPS application he wants to use in order to take him to specific location. I guess i h开发者_开发技巧ave to check first which GPS apps are installed... How can i do that? When user selects specific app, how can i activate it and tell it to route to specific destination?

It lacks of resources, but it's doable ... Copy & paste of my old source code ... Just replace Tip with something else. It's simple class, which holds locLatitude and locLongitude values with some more details. TomTom isn't supported, because I wasn't able to find URL scheme for it. As I no longer need it, I didn't try to search for it again.

typedef enum {
    ExternalNavigationAppGoogleMaps,
    ExternalNavigationAppNavigon,
    ExternalNavigationAppTomTom
} ExternalNavigationApp;

+ (BOOL)isSupported:(ExternalNavigationApp)navigationApp;
+ (BOOL)navigateTo:(Tip *)tip viaApp:(ExternalNavigationApp)navigationApp;
+ (BOOL)navigateTo:(Tip *)tip from:(CLLocationCoordinate2D)from viaApp:(ExternalNavigationApp)navigationApp;

... implementation parts ...

+ (NSString *)googleMapsUrl:(Tip *)tip from:(CLLocationCoordinate2D)from {  
    NSString *urlString = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"http://maps.google.com/maps?saddr=%1.6f,%1.6f&daddr=%1.6f,%1.6f",
                           from.latitude, from.longitude,
                           [tip.locLatitude floatValue], [tip.locLongitude floatValue]];
    return urlString;
}

+ (NSString *)navigonAppUrl:(Tip *)tip {
    NSString *urlString = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"navigon://%@|%@||||||%f|%f",
                           [[[NSBundle mainBundle] infoDictionary] objectForKey:@"CFBundleName"],
                           tip.name,
                           [tip.locLongitude floatValue],
                           [tip.locLatitude floatValue]];

    return urlString;
