Adjusting Position

MyQDOT™ Tracker provides a flexible way for you to share information with the community by using the GPS location coordinates provided by the satellites revolving around our Earth.

At any point in time, there are at least 4 satellites providing GPS data to your mobile device such as your iPhone. Therefore, the data received will always contain errors as the signals enter the Earch's atmosphere, due to many factors. MyQDOT™ Tracker shows the error calculated in the status bar at the bottom of the screen with a little triangle symbol called a Delta. This error value could sometimes be up to 200 metres, depending on your location and interference obstacles surrounding your position such as buildings.

Because of the unpredictable nature of the GPS signals, the application allows you to manually adjust your posted feature, by dragging the icons to the exact location that you want.

You can achieve this by first posting the feature, then touch the icon with your finger (becareful not to double tap as that will remove your feature) and simply move it to the exact location that you want.

If you are moving, such on a bus or as a passenger in a vehicle, you can first pause any location updates by touching the Adjusting Position icon. After you have corrected the position, you can tell the application to continue with any location updates by touching the Start Updating Icon icon.
