Abstract

Systems, methods and computer-readable mediums are disclosed for rapid reconfiguration of device location systems. In some implementations, a method comprises: determining, by a server computer, a fault in global location data, the server computer configured to periodically communicate with client devices over a network, the global location data being applicable to multiple client devices and independent of any particular location of any particular client device; determining, by the server computer, a potential impact of the faulty global location data on location systems implemented on the client devices; generating, by the server computer, a reconfiguration file including reconfiguration data for reconfiguring the location systems on the client devices to adapt to the faulty global location data; and automatically sending, by the server computer, the reconfiguration file to the client devices.
