How accurate is my GPS location in WHERE?

by Chrystie :: on April 24th, 2008

Typically, GPS is accurate to within a city block of your current physical location. If you are indoors (or in an obstructed location) or your network provider is having problems, your GPS location may only be accurate to your current city area; in a worst-case scenario, if your provider got an Assisted GPS Fix, your location may only be accurate to the nearest cell tower.

If you feel your GPS location is inaccurate, the best thing you can do is restart WHERE and try again. You can also try disabling GPS on your handset and entering your location manually (when prompted).
