Methods, device and systems for allowing modification to a service based on quality information
First Claim
1. A method of configuring a service accessible via a mobile device, said mobile device configured to allow a determination of location data indicative of a location of the mobile device using one or more of a plurality of location techniques, said method comprising:
- obtaining, by the mobile device, quality information including a designation of a location technique, selected from the plurality of location techniques, used for determining said location data (110), said quality information including at least partly a quality of said location data, said quality information further including an amount of time remaining until said location data is updated using a second location technique, the second location technique belonging to the plurality of location techniques and having higher accuracy than said location technique; and
integrating, by the mobile device, said quality information at least partly with said service to allow a modification of said service based on said quality information, wherein the integrating is modified if said quality information is outside of a quality criterion range.

Abstract
The disclosure is directed to a method, computer program product, mobile device allowing for configuring a service accessible via the mobile device. The mobile device is configured to allow a determination of its location data using one or more of a plurality of location techniques. The configuring of the service comprises obtaining quality information including a designation of the location technique used for determining said location data and at least partly a quality of said location data; and integrating said quality information at least partly with said service to allow a modification of said service based on said quality information. Various examples of services enabled or enhanced by this capability are described including camera service, navigation services, data sharing services. Various configurations of computer program products, mobile devices and systems for enabling the services above are also described.

19. A non-transitory computer program product configured for a service accessible via a mobile device, said mobile device configured to allow a determination of location data indicative of a location of the mobile device using one or more of a plurality of location techniques, the computer program product comprising code which, when loaded into a memory and executed on an associated processor, is adapted to cause the associated processor to perform:
-
obtaining quality information including a designation of a location technique, selected from the plurality of location techniques, used for determining said location data and at least partly a quality of said location data, said quality information further including an amount of time remaining until said location data is updated using a second location technique, the second location technique belonging to the plurality of location techniques and having higher accuracy than said location technique; and integrating said quality information at least partly with said service to allow a modification of said service based on said quality information, wherein the integrating is modified if said quality information is outside of a quality criterion range.

20. A mobile device configured to allow a user access to a service, said mobile device comprising:
-
a location identification module configured to determine location data indicative of a location of the mobile device, using one or more of a plurality of location techniques; a quality provisioning module configured to obtain quality information, said quality information including a designation of a location technique, selected from the plurality of location techniques, used for determining said location data and at least partly a quality of said location data, said quality information further including an amount of time remaining until said location data is updated using a second location technique, the second location technique belonging to the plurality of location techniques and having higher accuracy than said location technique; and a service access module configured to integrate said quality information at least partly with said service to allow a modification of said service based on said quality information, and configured to allow said user to access said service, wherein the integrating is modified if said quality information is outside of a quality criterion range. - View Dependent Claims (21, 22, 23)
