      XPost: comp.mobile.android, alt.home.repair       From: rragnusen@ultred.com              Am Sat, 31 Mar 2018 13:34:21 +0200, schrieb Libor 'Poutnik' Stříž:              > But map data and location service are very different things.              Hi Poutnik,       The map itself is different from the location, as you noted, but they are       interconnected because we are talking about the "OK MAPS" download       mechanism to obtain *offline* map data.              That offline map data may contain location data, such as the BSSID:location       pair for every access point that many (most?) Android phones (not mine!)       report to Google every minute of every day.              Hence, the location data is interrelated with the map data *if* Google       stores that location data *inside* the *offline* map data.              Nobody seems to know (and yet, nospam always alludes to being an omnipotent       genius but he can't tell you or he'd have to shoot you) if the       BSSID:location data is stored *inside* of the offline "OK MAPS" downloaded       map data.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
