Accuracy can also be affected by poor
satellite geometry. Availability and
quality of GPS signals may be affected by
your location, buildings, natural
obstacles, and weather conditions. GPS
signals may not be available inside
buildings or underground and may be
impaired by materials such as concrete
and metal.
GPS should not be used for precise
location measurement, and you should
never rely solely on location data from the
GPS receiver and cellular radio networks
for positioning or navigation.
The trip meter has limited accuracy, and
rounding errors may occur. Accuracy can
also be affected by availability and quality
of GPS signals.
