Abstract: Location mapping and navigation user interfaces may be generated and presented via mobile computing devices. A mobile device may detect its location and orientation using internal systems, and may capture image data using a device camera. The mobile device also may retrieve map information from a map server corresponding to the current location of the device. Using the image data captured at the device, the current location data, and the corresponding local map information, the mobile device may determine or update a current orientation reading for the device. Location errors and updated location data also may be determined for the device, and a map user interface may be generated and displayed on the mobile device using the updated device orientation and/or location data.

Abstract: Methods, non-transitory machine-readable mediums, and system to provide location services are described. In an embodiment, a method provides receiving at least two position fixes for a trajectory of an electronic device, where the at least two position fixes are obtained intermittently, matching the at least two position fixes to points on a path indicated in map data, and computing a distance for the trajectory using distance information using the map data.

Abstract: The subject technology provides for visualizing a route traversed by a user during a movement event by periodically obtaining position information data from a receiver of a navigation system during a movement event. A path traversed by a user of a device that includes the receiver during the movement event is estimated based on the position information data. One or more previously mapped features within a proximity of the estimated path on a map are determined. The estimated path is matched to the map based on the previously mapped features to obtain a map-matched path. A display device is caused to render the map-matched path on an image of the map.

Abstract: A device implementing a system for estimating device location includes at least one processor configured to estimate a first position of a device based on a first set of parameters, the first set of parameters derived from first sensor data obtained on the device, the first set of parameters corresponding to device motion. The at least one processor is configured to estimate a second position of a user of the device based on a second set of parameters, the second set of parameters derived from second sensor data obtained on the device, the second set of parameters corresponding to user motion. Estimating the first and second positions is constrained by a predefined relationship between the device motion and the user motion. The at least one processor is configured to provide at least one of the first position of the device or the second position of the user.

Abstract: A device implementing a system for estimating device orientation includes at least one processor configured to obtain a first estimate for a heading of a device, the first estimate being based on output from a magnetometer of the device. The at least one processor is further configured to capture image data using an image sensor of the device, and determine at least one second estimate of the heading based on correlating the image data with mapping data. The at least one processor is further configured to determine a bias associated with output of the magnetometer based on the first estimate and the at least one second estimate, and adjusting output of the magnetometer based on the determined bias.
