-the locations of dives.

-*Accuracy of GPS coordinates*
-
-GPS-derived coordinates on a smartphone
-are not always accurate and can have an error greater than 1 km. GPS accuracy
-is determined by the hardware and software of the
-smartphone as well as by the GPS settings selected within Android/iOS.
-As of Android V6 (Marshmallow) select Android _Settings -> Communication -> Location -> High accuracy_*.
-If the smartphone is taken on the boat
-during a dive, locations can be automatically recorded at regular intervals.
-These locations can then be applied to dives in the dive list as described below

-To collect dive site coordinates four step are required:

-=== Configuring the GPS service
-
-For most users, the defaults for tracking GPS locations are
-appropriate. If you would like to change them, go to
-the _Main Menu_, select the xref:S_Settings[_Settings_] screen, and open
-the _Advanced_ area on that page where there is a section for
-configuring the GPS service (see image below). GPS location data
-are collected at regular intervals, e.g. every 5 minutes, or at regular
-distances, e.g. after the boat has moved more than 200m, or a combination of
-both of these approaches. Provide the appropriate information and
-tap the _Back_ button. The program is now ready to collect GPS positions.

-In the _Location_ menu select _Run location service_.
-_Subsurface-mobile_ starts to collect GPS locations automatically,
-following the preferences specified as described above. While the GPS
-location service is running, all menus have a GPS symbol at the bottom,
-indicating that the service is active. After returning from
-the dive, deactivate the collection of GPS data by tapping
-the option _Location -> Disable location service_. The GPS symbol at the bottom
-of menus disappears.

-Collecting GPS fixes like this is relatively battery intensive and unfortunately
-both Android and especially iOS have become increasingly aggressive in killing
-applications that are running while the screen is turned off. It may make sense
-to check between dives that the location service is still running. On the other hand
-the battery consumption of a smartphone with GPS enabled is often significantly less than
-the battery consumption of a dedicated GPS that is logging a track.
-
-=== Viewing GPS data collected during a dive
-
-From the _Location_ submenu select _Show GPS fixes_. This brings
-up a list of GPS positions obtained by the location service (image
-below). Two actions are possible for each of the locations, enabled by
-dragging the right part of a location to the left. This exposes two
-options. Tapping the dustbin deletes this particular GPS location. Tapping the
-teardrop-shaped icon (actually a Google Maps pin) opens up Google Maps with a pin
-indicating the exact map position of the GPS record being viewed. The two above
-options can be hidden by drawing the GPS record to the right.

-=== Applying GPS data to dives in the dive log
-
-After running the location service during a dive trip, first either download
-the dives from your dive computer or manually enter the dives into the dive list.
-Now you can apply the GPS positions to these dives.
-From the _Dive management_ menu, tap _Apply GPS fixes_. The dive list contains the start
-and end times of each dive. Now, _Subsurface-mobile_ applies the first
-GPS position that falls within the dive period of each dive. This results
-in a GPS position for each dive that is saved as part of the dive log.
