    11 <p>The Location Service API allows <span>widgets</span> to retrieve information
       
    12 about the physical location of a device and to perform calculations based
       
    13 on location information. The API is integrated into <span>WRT</span> through the <a href="GUID-571AF37F-1E95-462A-92D2-FEA2E62F1559.html#GUID-571AF37F-1E95-462A-92D2-FEA2E62F1559"><code>device</code></a> object.</p>
       
    14 <p>For an overview of the service and the API, see section <a href="GUID-4DDE31C7-EC0D-4EEC-BC3A-A0B0351154F8.html#GUID-4DDE31C7-EC0D-4EEC-BC3A-A0B0351154F8">Accessing device location information</a>.</p>
       
    15 <div><h3>Using the Location Service API</h3>
       
    16 <p>To use the Location Service API, your <span>widget</span> must first create <span>a service object for it
       
    17 using the <a href="GUID-04095E9A-50E7-4E5F-BD6F-71DA281A0080.html#GUID-04095E9A-50E7-4E5F-BD6F-71DA281A0080"><code>device.getServiceObject()</code></a> method</span>.
       
    18 Use <code>Service.Location</code> to identify the service provider
       
    19 and <code>ILocation</code> to identify the supported interface:</p>
       
    20 <pre class="codeblock" id="GUID-E2C5C349-0E25-4508-A09C-78065249F25D-GENIDd0e47704">var so = device.getServiceObject("Service.Location", "ILocation");</pre>
       
    21 
       
    22 <p>This service object can then be used to access the services provided
       
    23 by the API:</p>
       
    24 <ul>
       
    25 <li><p><a href="GUID-150E440F-56E4-4249-8739-A5A7A2050600.html#GUID-150E440F-56E4-4249-8739-A5A7A2050600"><span><code>ILocation.GetLocation()</code></span></a></p>
       
    26 </li>
       
    27 <li><p><a href="GUID-7A0190CB-545E-48D2-BAF0-D28E03CDFCA5.html#GUID-7A0190CB-545E-48D2-BAF0-D28E03CDFCA5"><span><code>ILocation.Trace()</code></span></a></p>
       
    28 </li>
       
    29 <li><p><a href="GUID-DBEE8177-7246-4FEE-A0F1-D6AEEA6EA206.html#GUID-DBEE8177-7246-4FEE-A0F1-D6AEEA6EA206"><span><code>ILocation.Calculate()</code></span></a></p>
       
    30 </li>
       
    31 <li><p><a href="GUID-7A466B60-88DD-4A3A-B64C-E7300D42DA56.html#GUID-7A466B60-88DD-4A3A-B64C-E7300D42DA56"><span><code>ILocation.CancelNotification()</code></span></a></p>
       
    32 </li>
       
    33 </ul>
       
    34 <p>For the location services to function on an S60 device, the device must
       
    35 be location aware. It must include some location information provider, such
       
    36 as GPS, AGPS, or GPS across Bluetooth.</p>
       
    37 </div>
       
    38 <div><h3>Emulator support</h3>
       
    39 <p>The S60 5th Edition SDK emulator provides full support for the Location
       
    40 Service API.</p>
       
    41 <p>GPS data is simulated by using Position System plugins (PSY) as dummy
       
    42 providers. Dummy providers are available on the emulator by default.</p>
