    Abstract: The embodiments described relate to techniques and systems for utilizing a portable electronic device to monitor, process, present and manage data captured by a series of sensors and location awareness technologies to provide a context aware map and navigation application. The context aware map application offers a user interface including visual and audio input and output, and provides several map modes that can change based upon context determined by data captured by a series of sensors and location awareness technologies.

    Abstract: Methods, program products, and systems for managing a location database are described. A server can receive location information from location aware mobile devices (e.g., GPS-enabled devices) located within a communication range of access points of a wireless communications network. The server can calculate average geographic locations using the received locations for each access point. Based on the average geographic locations, the server can assign the access points to cells of a geographic grid. The server can filter the access points in each cell based on popularity, stability, longevity, and freshness of the access points and the received data. When a second mobile device connects to an access point in a cell, the location of the second mobile device can be determined based on locations of the access points in the cell and in neighboring cells.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer-readable media for a location information server to gather location updates by sending location-update-requests through a push notification service to a mobile device are disclosed. The mobile device provides location updates in response to the push-based location-update-requests received through the push notification service. The mobile device can switch from a self-initiated location update mode to a push-based location update mode depending on the current state of the mobile device. The mobile device can also choose an appropriate positioning system for self-locating based on the information embedded in the location-update-request received through the push notification service. The information embedded in the pushed location-update-request can be a precision requirement or context information that can be used to determine a precision requirement for the location update.
