However, I assume that the actual GPS could be off and only use other means of location like IP geo and cell name/ID. Does using that alone allow the actual GPS to be off (as in, the math part)?

Is this a dev thread or a brainstorm? It was already requested to start a garage project. Let me know if you want to be moved to dev or create a proposal please. Use the "Report This" button to make me notice your decision!
