存在的问题:
尽快在阈值范围内获取用户的当前位置，同时节省电池。
为什么这个问题是问题:
首先，android有两个提供者;网络和GPS。有时网络更好，有时GPS更好。
这里的“更好”指的是速度与准确度之比。
我愿意牺牲几米的精度，只要我能在不打开GPS的情况下立即得到位置。
其次，如果您请求更新位置更改，如果当前位置稳定，则不会发送任何内容。
谷歌有一个确定“最佳”位置的例子:http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/location/obtaining-user-location.html#BestEstimate
但是我认为它远不如它应该/可以做到的那么好。
我有点困惑为什么谷歌没有一个规范化的API的位置，开发人员不应该关心位置从哪里来，你应该指定你想要什么，手机应该为你选择。
我需要帮助的方面:
我需要找到一种确定“最佳”位置的好方法，可能是通过一些启发式或第三方库。
这并不意味着要确定最好的提供者!
我可能会使用所有的提供者，并从中选择最好的。
app背景:
该应用程序将在固定的时间间隔(比如每10分钟左右)收集用户的位置，并将其发送到服务器。
应用程序应该尽可能节省电池，位置应该有X(50-100?)米的精度。
我们的目标是以后能够在地图上绘制用户白天的路径，所以我需要足够的准确性。
Misc:
你认为期望和接受的精确度的合理值是多少?
我一直在用接受的100万和想要的30万，这要求太高了吗?
我希望以后能够在地图上绘制用户的路径。
要求100米，接受500米更好吗?
另外，现在我的GPS每次更新位置最多60秒，如果你在室内，精度可能是200米，这是不是太短了?
这是我目前的代码，任何反馈都是赞赏的(除了缺乏错误检查，这是TODO):

最近重构得到的位置代码，学习了一些不错的思路，最后实现了一个比较完善的库和Demo。

1.谢谢@Gryphius解决方案的想法，我也分享了完整的代码。
2.每次请求完成位置时，最好删除更新，否则手机状态栏会一直显示定位图标
看起来我们在编写相同的应用程序;-)
这是我当前的实现。我的GPS上传应用程序仍处于beta测试阶段，因此可能会有许多可能的改进。但到目前为止，它似乎运行得很好。
/**
* try to get the 'best' location selected from all providers
*/
private Location getBestLocation() {
Location gpslocation = getLocationByProvider(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER);
Location networkLocation =
getLocationByProvider(LocationManager.NETWORK_PROVIDER);
// if we have only one location available, the choice is easy
if (gpslocation == null) {
Log.d(TAG, "No GPS Location available.");
return networkLocation;
}
if (networkLocation == null) {
Log.d(TAG, "No Network Location available");
return gpslocation;
}
// a locationupdate is considered 'old' if its older than the configured
// update interval. this means, we didn't get a
// update from this provider since the last check
long old = System.currentTimeMillis() - getGPSCheckMilliSecsFromPrefs();
boolean gpsIsOld = (gpslocation.getTime() < old);
boolean networkIsOld = (networkLocation.getTime() < old);
// gps is current and available, gps is better than network
if (!gpsIsOld) {
Log.d(TAG, "Returning current GPS Location");
return gpslocation;
}
// gps is old, we can't trust it. use network location
if (!networkIsOld) {
Log.d(TAG, "GPS is old, Network is current, returning network");
return networkLocation;
}
// both are old return the newer of those two
if (gpslocation.getTime() > networkLocation.getTime()) {
Log.d(TAG, "Both are old, returning gps(newer)");
return gpslocation;
} else {
Log.d(TAG, "Both are old, returning network(newer)");
return networkLocation;
}
}
/**
* get the last known location from a specific provider (network/gps)
*/
private Location getLocationByProvider(String provider) {
Location location = null;
if (!isProviderSupported(provider)) {
return null;
}
LocationManager locationManager = (LocationManager) getApplicationContext()
.getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE);
try {
if (locationManager.isProviderEnabled(provider)) {
location = locationManager.getLastKnownLocation(provider);
}
} catch (IllegalArgumentException e) {
Log.d(TAG, "Cannot acces Provider " + provider);
}
return location;
}
编辑:这里是请求位置提供者定期更新的部分:
public void startRecording() {
gpsTimer.cancel();
gpsTimer = new Timer();
long checkInterval = getGPSCheckMilliSecsFromPrefs();
long minDistance = getMinDistanceFromPrefs();
// receive updates
LocationManager locationManager = (LocationManager) getApplicationContext()
.getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE);
for (String s : locationManager.getAllProviders()) {
locationManager.requestLocationUpdates(s, checkInterval,
minDistance, new LocationListener() {
@Override
public void onStatusChanged(String provider,
int status, Bundle extras) {}
@Override
public void onProviderEnabled(String provider) {}
@Override
public void onProviderDisabled(String provider) {}
@Override
public void onLocationChanged(Location location) {
// if this is a gps location, we can use it
if (location.getProvider().equals(
LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER)) {
doLocationUpdate(location, true);
}
}
});
// //Toast.makeText(this, "GPS Service STARTED",
// Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
gps_recorder_running = true;
}
// start the gps receiver thread
gpsTimer.scheduleAtFixedRate(new TimerTask() {
@Override
public void run() {
Location location = getBestLocation();
doLocationUpdate(location, false);
}
}, 0, checkInterval);
}
public void doLocationUpdate(Location l, boolean force) {
long minDistance = getMinDistanceFromPrefs();
Log.d(TAG, "update received:" + l);
if (l == null) {
Log.d(TAG, "Empty location");
if (force)
Toast.makeText(this, "Current location not available",
Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
return;
}
if (lastLocation != null) {
float distance = l.distanceTo(lastLocation);
Log.d(TAG, "Distance to last: " + distance);
if (l.distanceTo(lastLocation) < minDistance && !force) {
Log.d(TAG, "Position didn't change");
return;
}
if (l.getAccuracy() >= lastLocation.getAccuracy()
&& l.distanceTo(lastLocation) < l.getAccuracy() && !force) {
Log.d(TAG,
"Accuracy got worse and we are still "
+ "within the accuracy range.. Not updating");
return;
}
if (l.getTime() <= lastprovidertimestamp && !force) {
Log.d(TAG, "Timestamp not never than last");
return;
}
}
// upload/store your location here
}
需要考虑的事情:
不要太频繁地要求更新GPS，这会消耗电池电量。我目前
使用30分钟作为默认的应用程序。
增加“到最后已知位置的最小距离”检查。没有这个，你的分数
当GPS无法使用，位置被三角定位时，会“跳来跳去”吗
从发射塔传来的。或者您可以检查新位置是否在精度范围之外
最后一个已知位置的值。
