The Location Manager controlls the different positioning services that are available for mobile devices. The current UBIK.Android application allows the user to use the network cell location, GPS, WiFi Fingerprinting, Dead Reckoning and LLA Marker tracking together. UBIK® Positioning calculates, based on the captured location and on the geodata of the building, the highest plausible location of the device. To limit the positioning systems for the current usage, for example outdoor or indoor usage, the user has the possibility to appropriate mode in the settings.

Possible Positioning Modes

There are three different modes available for the Location Manager. The names and defined behaviors are:

  • OUTDOOR_MODE: combines GPS, network cell location, dead reckoning and LLA marker tracking.
  • INDOOR_MODE: combines WiFi fingerprinting (based on the measured fingerprint of the building), GPS, network cell location, dead reckoning and the routing data of the building.
  • LLA_ONLY_MODE: allows the user to locate the device only by scanning LLA markers.

The different modes are available in the User Specific Settings:
