Our application uses Google Fused location API to receive location updates every 3 minutes. The location request settings are as follows – Interval – 3min Fastest interval – 1 min Priority - PRIORITY_BALANCED_POWER_ACCURACY In a normal running scenario, the location updates are received properly and the location accuracy is pretty good (around 20-25 m). When the Maps application is opened, it received GPS location, and therefore our application also starts receiving location updates, which are basically from the GPS transceiver (I know this as the subsequent location updates have a speed and

For example, I have a latitude and longitude in decimal format (as opposed to Degrees-Hours-Minutes like lat=44.1° 9.5' 30''). To search for nearby objects, I must specify the search "radius" as a rectangle with four values: north = 44.1; south = -9.9; east = -22.4; west = 55.2; Is there a formula or rule of thumb how to convert decimal lat/long values into a rectangular bounding box, such that the given latitude/longitude is in the center of that box? Must I fiddle around myself with a WGS84 ellipsoid algorithm or are there open solutions to the problem? I had exactly this problem and the

Using xamarin for current location currentLocation example I used the above Link for getting current location latitude and longitude. In IOS 7 before upgrade to IOS 8 Its shows my current location latitude and longitude on both simulator and device.(Its looks strange for me in simulator for getting current location latitude and longitude). After upgrade to iOS 8 and run same code it give In simulator:(Turn on wifi no sim card location service App always.) Result: latitude = 37.785834. longitude = -122.406517. On Device IPhone5c (Turn on wifi no sim card location service App always.) Result:

I'm trying to set up a quick and dirty GPS lookup via LocationManager which fetches a network location (within 500 meters) every half second for ten seconds. In other words, I'm just trying to find the correct coarse Criteria settings and the correct logic to stop checking after 10 seconds of no better locations within my Handler thread. I'm thinking my main loop should look something like this: /** * Iteration step time. */ private static final int ITERATION_TIMEOUT_STEP = 500; //half-sec intervals public void run(){ boolean stop = false; counts++; if(DEBUG){ Log.d(TAG, "counts=" + counts); }
