Answer 1

If you want to upload some information to web server, simple way is to use GET method in your web server part. you may pass two parameter latitude + longitude to server.

Second thing is to communicate with server to mobile device. Better way is to use JSON format to communicate between them. Try to understand the JSON format and implement it.

Answer 2

There are many ways to perform this data transfer using the Android platform.
