Get location

The Get location option provides the simulated location using the selected data file. This provides you with a way of verifying that the correct data file has been selected.

Click Options and select the Get location from the menu.

If the location information is available the simulated latitude, longitude, altitude, horizontal accuracy and vertical accuracy are displayed in a list dialog in the specified order.

In case of error, an error note with the error code will be displayed.

Simulation PSY Configurator always uses Simulation PSY to get the location information. Therefore the values are simulated values and not the actual location.

Note: After each location request has been completed, the Simulation PSY session is closed. Every time you make a request, Simulation PSY starts the simulation from the beginning. You will get the same location information even if a simulated movement file is used, unless the data file specifies random behavior.
