About positioning methods
Maps displays your location on the map
using GPS, A-GPS, Wi-Fi, or cell ID based
positioning.
The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a
satellite-based navigation system used
for calculating your location. Assisted GPS
(A-GPS) is a network service that sends you
GPS data, improving the speed and
accuracy of the positioning.
Wi-Fi positioning improves position
accuracy when GPS signals are not
available, especially when you are indoors
or between tall buildings.
With cell ID based positioning, the
position is determined through the
antenna tower your cellular phone is
currently connected to.
Depending on the available positioning
method, the accuracy of positioning may
vary from a few meters to several
kilometers.
When you use Maps for the first time, you
are prompted to define the internet access
point to use to download map
information, use A-GPS, or connect to a
Wi-Fi.
