Abstract
A location detection system performs a process that uses data from a satellite navigation sensor in conjunction with data from a second sensor to determine the accuracy of location estimates provided by the satellite navigation sensor. The system uses the satellite navigation sensor to determine location estimates from at a first time and a second time. The system also uses data from the second sensor to determine a third location estimate, which represents another estimate of the system's location at the second time. The system uses the three location estimates to determine whether the second location estimate satisfies an accuracy condition. If the accuracy condition is satisfied, then the second location estimate may be provided as input to a process.
