-Four different methods are available in Symbian platform. Each having different response time, accuracy and so on. Each location accusation method is identified with Uid and technology type. To use any of the method, we have to  create a session with the positioning server and then we create  a sub-session with the positioning server. When we create sub-session we can instruct the framework what positioning mechanism we are going to use. If we don't provide any specific positioning method then the server uses the positioning module with the highest priority by default. If the highest priority positioning module is not available or if it  returns an error for a position request then the positioning module with the next highest priority is used. Following table shows different modules, name and it's Uid.

 We can ask this example to get the location From UI and the location is used to download map. The obtained location is the center of the map. So first half of the operation is location accusation and second half is obtaining map from Google. When we use network based solution then we should not see the satellite icon (for example in N97) on the other hand when we use GPS (a relatively longer process) to acquire location then we should not see the network connection icon. In this example, we see the network connection icon when we download the map and use network based or assisted GPS.
