The TrailBehind topos at highest resolution are the 1:24,000 Ortho
Quad DRGs. The iPhone screes is 326 dpi and th little black squares
representing small buildings are about 16 x 16 pixels as best I can
measure.

Unfortunately Application Developers don't have much to work
with, the limitation being Apple's API which only provides, as
far as I can tell, 3D Position, velocity, and either HDOP and
VDOP or their equivalents.
The iPhone 4 uses the Broadcom BCM4750 GPS Chipset.
