Hi, (1) It seems to be raw eg via NMEA Strings, but you would need to read the Android Source code for the LocationManager to be sure about what is being put into the Location objects it returns. Some Android devices & versions will provide both NMEA Strings and Location objects. See the SDK documentation for details.
(2) You would need to test this on an Android device and compare it with a high end centimetre accurate GPS device. Typically the Android devices seem to be accurate to 10 to 20 meters horizontal and sometimes less with a good fix, but this varies as different Android devices use different GPS chips.
