TECHNIQUES TO MANAGE CLIENT LOCATION DETECTION
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method, comprising:
- determining that a network service is scheduled for a location update from a mobile device;
determining, using a processor circuit, a location accuracy based on the network service;
transmitting a location request to the mobile device using a network interface component, the location request specifying the location accuracy determined based on the network service;
receiving a response to the location request from the mobile device, the response comprising a location of the mobile device conforming to the specified location accuracy; and
updating the network service with the received location of the mobile device.

Abstract
Techniques to manage client location detection are described. In one embodiment an apparatus may comprise a location-based services support component and a client management component. The location-based services support component may be operative to determine that a network service is scheduled for a location update from a mobile device, determine a location accuracy based on the network service, and update the network service with a received location of the mobile device. The client management component may be operative to transmit a location request to the mobile device, the location request specifying the location accuracy determined based on the network service and receive a response to the location request from the mobile device, the response comprising the location of the mobile device conforming to the specified location accuracy. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
