This Python application provides a speed camera warning program for the Nokia N95 phone and other suitable Symbian Series 60 3ed phones. It is designed to operate in the background (e.g. whilst using Nokia Maps or in standby) and popup to the foreground with an audio visual alert, then return to the background.

The application together with an installation and user guide is available as a free download

[Speedcam v1.5.1 and SpeedCamData v1.2]
Due to the restrictions imposed by Symbian Signed, the installation process is a bit tedious.


A suitable speed camera data file is required. A dummy file speedcam.txt is provided to illustrate the required format of the file. For the UK, a good source of up to date files is available at Pocket GPS World (I have no affiliation with them) - an annual subscription is required to obtain the relevant file (pocketgps_uk_sc.csv) from:
[Only registered and activated users can see links] old pocketgps_uk_sc.csv file that can be used to try out the application is available free in:

This application has only been tested on an N95-1 running V21 firmware using both the internal GPS and an external BlueTooth GPS, but should work with other Series 60 3ed phones that support Location Based Services.

I believe so. It's just an update of the previous version (rep+ N_P if I can), no major structural changes.

One request (to mods): can we merge this new thread with the previous one?
In the original thread there were useful posts on how to make it work in other Countries.

Plus for UK I posted an updated and complete pocketGPS file ;)
