What you'll learn

Using GPS to find out exactly where you are is one of the more awesome powers of mobile devices. It also poses some of the toughest challenges to developers, who must prevent excessive battery drain and deal with insufficient accuracy. In this talk.

If you've ever wanted to understand how satellite navigation actually works, this is the talk for you.
