How to get the latitude and longitude of current geo position using Android while the user is moving

Good Afternoon,

          I am working on Google maps app in that i need to track the Geo location of the user/mobile while moving. This code solved my problem smoothly. Try this it may help you.

// The minimum distance to change Updates in meters

private static final long MIN_DISTANCE_CHANGE_FOR_UPDATES = 10; // 10 meters

// The minimum time between updates in milliseconds

private static final long MIN_TIME_BW_UPDATES = 1000 * 60 * 1; // 1 minute

// Declaring a Location Manager

protected LocationManager locationManager;

public Location getLocation() {

try {

locationManager = (LocationManager) mContext

.getSystemService(LOCATION_SERVICE);

// getting GPS status

isGPSEnabled = locationManager

.isProviderEnabled(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER);

// getting network status

isNetworkEnabled = locationManager

.isProviderEnabled(LocationManager.NETWORK_PROVIDER);

if (!isGPSEnabled && !isNetworkEnabled) {

// no network provider is enabled

} else {

this.canGetLocation = true;

if (isNetworkEnabled) {

locationManager.requestLocationUpdates(

LocationManager.NETWORK_PROVIDER,

MIN_TIME_BW_UPDATES,

MIN_DISTANCE_CHANGE_FOR_UPDATES, this);

Log.d("Network", "Network");

if (locationManager != null) {

location = locationManager

.getLastKnownLocation(LocationManager.NETWORK_PROVIDER);

if (location != null) {

latitude = location.getLatitude();

longitude = location.getLongitude();

}

}

}

// if GPS Enabled get lat/long using GPS Services

if (isGPSEnabled) {

if (location == null) {

locationManager.requestLocationUpdates(

LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER,

MIN_TIME_BW_UPDATES,

MIN_DISTANCE_CHANGE_FOR_UPDATES, this);

Log.d("GPS Enabled", "GPS Enabled");

if (locationManager != null) {

location = locationManager

.getLastKnownLocation(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER);

if (location != null) {

latitude = location.getLatitude();

longitude = location.getLongitude();

}

}

}

}

}

} catch (Exception e) {

e.printStackTrace();

}

return location;

}
