Hello, I have a program that shows where the user is at, and if the provider is more accurate than the previous location I have, then it will recalculate the route for the user, and it shows the current location of the user on the map.
This works fine except when there must be some inaccuracy from the GPS, so I noticed that my marker would jump to another street, then back to the correct location. I also noticed that if the GPS signal is lost then reacquired, it is possible for the GPS to give a slightly off location which will mess up the route the user should take. I am not certain the best way to handle this. I added having it recalculate the route when a better provider is used, as a person may go to a mall, shop, come out a different entrance, then continue to their goal. So, the location they went in and came out is different, since their friend picked them up from the other entrance. I actually did this due to my starting my program in the house, using WiFi for location, then when the GPS starts outside, I want better information. I do know the most previous location and the current location so I could look for big changes, but if the change is to go from the location on one street to a similar location but on the next street then looking for any big change won't work since the straight-line distance is short.
