09:05 <doogs> can someone talk to me about tracking profiles?

09:06 <aaronpk> sure thing

09:06 <aaronpk> did you already see this page? http://developers.geoloqi.com/ios/tracking-profiles

09:08 <doogs> thanks ... I there are two different people asking about expected behavior... check out this one

09:08 <doogs> https://github.com/geoloqi/Geoloqi-Android-SDK/issues/3

09:09 <aaronpk> might have to ask our android guys, I'm not as familiar with the android side of things

09:10 <aaronpk> seems strange though I agree

09:11 <doogs> so aaron... In looking into GPS settings ... (at least in droid) there are two basic parameters used to turn on GPS ... frequency (in miliseconds) and distance in feet I think...

09:12 <doogs> these params from what I gather are there to tell droid when to ping the gps sensor for updates....

09:12 <doogs> does the same hold true on iOS

09:12 <aaronpk> it's totally different on iOS

09:12 <doogs> :) nice

09:14 <aaronpk> and much more of a "black box" approach

09:14 <aaronpk> you aren't talking to the GPS hardware, you're talking to the iOS "location manager"

09:14 <doogs> ok... but under the hood from what I read tracking profiles abstract the native GPS senesors.. so there are pretty much the same

09:15 <aaronpk> the goal is they are pretty much the same, yes

09:15 <doogs> is that a fair assumption to think our SDK does this

09:15 <doogs> cool

09:18 <doogs> so if it possible to say something like. "Logging" gets data every five feet", "Realtime" gets data every second every one feet, "Adaptive" gets data every 10 minutes and every mile and "Rough" gets data every 30 minutes every 5 miles

09:19 <doogs> I wanted to say is it possible...to summaries these using descriptions like "time and distance"...

09:19 <aaronpk> it's best not to be so explicit about it

09:19 <aaronpk> on iphone it's not really based on time or distance

09:20 <aaronpk> it's mostly based on distance in realtime/logging mode on iphone, but in adaptive and rough, totally not

09:21 <doogs> just trying to get a handle on how to troubleshoot when people say onLocationChange does not fire...

09:22 <aaronpk> back in a bit

09:23 <doogs> If there using rough and sitting in there office chair all day.. do you think onLocationChange might get triggered once and once only?

09:46 <aaronpk> doogs: yea it's quite possible

09:46 <aaronpk> the phones tend to do their own power management as well, which may lead to things like onLocationChange not being called as often as you expect
