Position Requests; Landmarks - Nokia N86 User Manual

If your device has found
satellites, a bar for each satellite
is displayed in the satellite
information view. The longer
the bar, the stronger the satellite
signal is. When your device has
received enough data from the
satellite signal to calculate the coordinates of your
location, the bar colour changes.
Initially, your device must receive signals from at least
four satellites to be able to calculate the coordinates of
your location. When the initial calculation has been made,
it may be possible to continue calculating the coordinates
of your location with three satellites. However, the
accuracy is generally better when more satellites are
found.

Position requests

You may receive a request from a network service to
receive your position information. Service providers may
offer information about local topics, such as weather or
traffic conditions, based on the location of your device.
When you receive a position request, the service that is
making the request is displayed. Select
your position information to be sent or
request.
