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 choose the right mode in the settings.
Possible positioning modes
There are threedifferent modes for the Location Manager available. Here are their names and defined behaviors:
- 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.
UI Representation
The different modes are available in the Settings: File:Settings main.jpg It is possible to switch the positioning mode, and confirm with "OK": File:Settings positioning mode.jpg
