How fix large jumps in location in android phone

Karim momo10 months ago

Hello,
I just install traccar in place and everything works fine. To test this I installed traccar client on an android phone to follow it. After having done a distance I noticed that there is a large jump in location as you can see in the image below.

Jump location and normal way

Note that I am in an area where 4G is interrupted at times throughout my journey on the road, is this due to this?

What accuracy are you using?

I use the average precision

Then it's probably expected. From what I can see your location is not in a very populated area, so cell and wifi location will be pretty inaccurate.

Actually the area is not populated and the telephone network is rare, the wifi networks are almost non-existent. And if I use a GPS tracker device in a car, will this solve the accuracy problem encountered?

You can easily solve the problem by changing the accuracy in the app. I'm very confused by this conversation. You have a problem with accuracy, but you don't want to set the accuracy to high? I think you're not telling us some context here.

Rest assured that we speak the same language. I understood what you said, I will change to high precision to do a second test. I will get back to you after the test.

@Anton Tananaev
The test carried out with high precision is conclusive. This works well and there is no more jumps in location. Thanks for your help
