About positioning methods

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. Self-assisted GPS (SA-GPS)

provides the fastest positioning without using a network connection.
