Abstract: A method, system, and computer program product provide access to user information, such as landmarks, without applications having to implement the needed user interface functionality on their own. In one embodiment, common landmark user interface components are offered with application programming interfaces (APIs) for controlling the user interfaces. By utilizing this kind of common user interface, all applications can utilize landmarks.

Abstract: In a method for activating a location-based function, at least one item of position data is determined for the function as a condition for activating the function. A device in a wireless communication network examines at least one property of the network to decide whether positioning of the device (1) is conducted. Likewise, a system may include determination means for determining a location-based function, for which at least one item of position data is determined as a condition for activating the function. The invention also relates to a program in which the method is applied.
