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.
The availability and quality of GPS signals
may be affected by your location, satellite
positions, buildings, natural obstacles,
weather conditions and adjustments to
GPS satellites made by the United States
government. GPS signals may not be
available inside buildings or
underground.
Do not use GPS for precise location
measurement, and never rely solely on the
location information provided by GPS and
cellular networks.
Note: Using Wi-Fi may be restricted in
some countries. For example, in France,
you are only allowed to use Wi-Fi indoors.
For more information, contact your local
authorities.
