I was wondering if anyone could point me to (or paste in) some code to deal with turning off Core Location updates to save power. As far as I understand it, you should stop Core Location updates as soon as you get a reading of desired accuracy. If you don't get a good accuracy reading after a certain time, you should also stop updates (...

My code is working, however sometimes the nearby annotations do not appear on the map. They are still being made as I see the correct data in the console ...
Does anyone know if Core Location in the iPhone OS uses anything but simple vector math to calculate speed? I've read that the GPS system can provide speed measurements that can be accurate when position is not (I believe using the Doppler shifts of the signals). I've tried and failed to see if the iPhone does this. The question is basi...
I know there are numerous questions about how to construct a sharedApplication link to the maps app specifying the start and end address with coordinates. I've got that working no problem. Has anyone found a way to link with a source address generically specified as "current location". I ask because the scenario I'm working on having ...
So, i'm trying to port my app to iPad. I'm using CoreLocation.

I have a few questions about CoreLocation and GPS. First, what method in core location is used to continually get the users current coordinates? And at what interval should these be retrieved? Second, should these coordinates be pushed into a NSMutableArray each time they are received, so that the array of coordinates will represent...

(Two edits follow the original body of this question, both of which modify the question pretty radically. Don't get hung up on the first part of this--while useful for contextual purposes, I've all but ruled out the original problem I was asking about.) As you can see from the title, I've programmed myself into a corner and I've got sev...
