Abstract: Systems, methods, devices, computer readable media, and other various embodiments are described for location management processes in wearable electronic devices. Performance of such devices is improved with reduced time to first fix of location operations in conjunction with low-power operations. In one embodiment, low-power circuitry manages high-speed circuitry and location circuitry to provide location assistance data from the high-speed circuitry to the low-power circuitry automatically on initiation of location fix operations as the high-speed circuitry and location circuitry are booted from low-power states. In some embodiments, the high-speed circuitry is returned to a low-power state prior to completion of a location fix and after capture of content associated with initiation of the location fix. In some embodiments, high-speed circuitry is booted after completion of a location fix to update location data associated with content.

Abstract: Systems, methods, devices, computer readable media, and other various embodiments are described for location management processes in wearable electronic devices. One embodiment involves pairing a client device with a wearable device, capturing a first client location fix at a first time using the first application and location circuitry of the client device. The client device then receives content from the wearable device, where the content is associated with a content capture time and location state data. The client device then updates a location based on the available data to reconcile the different sets of location data. In some embodiments, additional sensor data, such as data from an accelerometer, is used is used to determine which location data is more accurate for certain content.
