Remarks

A data class representing a geographic location. A location consists of a latitude, longitude, timestamp, accuracy, and other information such as bearing, altitude and velocity.

All locations generated through LocationManager are guaranteed to have a valid latitude, longitude, timestamp (both Unix epoch time and elapsed realtime since boot), and accuracy. All other parameters are optional.

<p class="note">Note that Android provides the ability for applications to submit "mock" or faked locations through LocationManager, and that these locations can then be received by applications using LocationManager to obtain location information. These locations can be identified via the #isMock() API. Applications that wish to determine if a given location represents the best estimate of the real position of the device as opposed to a fake location coming from another application or the user should use this API. Keep in mind that the user may have a good reason for mocking their location, and thus apps should generally reject mock locations only when it is essential to their use case that only real locations are accepted.
