DETERMINING LOCATION USING MULTI-SOURCE GEOLOCATION DATA
Systems, methods, and computer readable media that determine a location of a device using multi-source geolocation data, where the methods include accessing new location data from a location source of a plurality of location sources, where the new location data includes a new position and an accuracy of the new position, and determining a current position and an accuracy of the current position based on the new position, the accuracy of the new position, an previous current position, and an accuracy of the previous current position. The method further includes determining a change in location based on a difference between the current position and the previous current position. Some systems, methods, and computer readable media are directed to scheduling location requests to generate location data where the scheduling and the actual requests are made based on a number of conditions.
Scheduling requests for location data
Systems, methods, and computer readable media that schedules requests for location data of a mobile device, where the methods include selecting a first positioning system based on a power requirement, a latency requirement, and an accuracy requirement, and determining whether a first condition is satisfied for querying the first positioning system. The method further comprises in response to a determination that the first condition is satisfied, querying the first positioning system for first position data. The method further comprises in response to a determination that the first condition is not satisfied, selecting a second positioning system based on the power requirement, the latency requirement, and the accuracy requirement, determining whether a second condition is satisfied for querying the second positioning system, and in response to a determination that the second condition is satisfied, querying the second positioning system for second position data.
