Abstract
Exemplary methods, apparatuses, and systems read location data representing a current location of a mobile device. The location data for the mobile device is taken at a first sampling rate. Upon determining that the location data indicates that the mobile device is approaching a geographic area having a history of wireless communication loss, the mobile device is triggered to increase location data sampling from the first sampling rate to a second sampling rate.
