Hi
I wanted to ask your opinion on the fact that my GPS is quite random at times. You should know that I use it to record work data in the field and make traces of my visited spaces.
This season I found that it sometimes worked very well, but sometimes it was able to send me to the next town or have location faults quite high (+10 meters).
While searching a little, I came across this information that I had missed:
Network Geolocation was using Mozilla Location Services in addition to GPS. Since Mozilla Location Services has been closed mid-2024, e Foundation has set up an anonymous proxy to the HERE location service (HERE Technologies Documentation | HERE Docs) as a short term plan to ensure continuity of service for /e/OS users. So far the service has proven to work well while protecting user’s privacy. However, since the HERE API service has a significant cost for e Foundation, we’re working on more long term options.
Is there anything I can do to ensure good precision in my work?
Ps: anecdote: I recently discovered that my GPS is no longer useful under large stormy cloud masses. Me neither.
