    <p>I am looking to find information about checking for a location on android (approximately every 15 minutes) throughout the day and storing the geo-coordinates. This will happen when the app is in the background also, not just when the app is running in the foreground. I am not sure on the search terms and I can't seem to find anything. Can anyone even suggest search terms to point me in the right direction?</p> <p>Many Thanks, Kevin</p> <p>EDIT:</p> <pre><code>public class MyService extends Service { private static final String TAG = "Location"; private LocationManager mLocationManager = null; private static final int LOCATION_INTERVAL = 1000; private static final float LOCATION_DISTANCE = 10f; private class LocationListener implements android.location.LocationListener{ Location mLastLocation; public LocationListener(String provider) { Log.i(TAG, "LocationListener " + provider); mLastLocation = new Location(provider); } public void onLocationChanged(Location location) { Log.i(TAG, "onLocationChanged: " + location); mLastLocation.set(location); } public void onProviderDisabled(String provider) { Log.i(TAG, "onProviderDisabled: " + provider); } public void onProviderEnabled(String provider) { Log.i(TAG, "onProviderEnabled: " + provider); } public void onStatusChanged(String provider, int status, Bundle extras) { Log.i(TAG, "onStatusChanged: " + provider); } } LocationListener[] mLocationListeners = new LocationListener[] { new LocationListener(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER), }; @Override public IBinder onBind(Intent arg0) { return null; } @Override public int onStartCommand(Intent intent, int flags, int startId) { Log.i(TAG, "onStartCommand"); super.onStartCommand(intent, flags, startId); return START_STICKY; } @Override public void onCreate() { Log.i(TAG, "onCreate"); initializeLocationManager(); try { Thread LocThread = new Thread(new Runnable() { public void run() { mLocationManager.requestLocationUpdates( LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER, LOCATION_INTERVAL, LOCATION_DISTANCE, mLocationListeners[0]); } }); try { LocThread.join(); } catch (InterruptedException e) { Log.i("LocationError","Thread could not join"); e.printStackTrace(); } } catch (java.lang.SecurityException ex) { Log.i(TAG, "fail to request location update, ignore", ex); } catch (IllegalArgumentException ex) { Log.i(TAG, "gps provider does not exist " + ex.getMessage()); } } @Override public void onDestroy() { Log.e(TAG, "onDestroy"); super.onDestroy(); if (mLocationManager != null) { for (int i = 0; i &lt; mLocationListeners.length; i++) { try { mLocationManager.removeUpdates(mLocationListeners[i]); } catch (Exception ex) { Log.i(TAG, "fail to remove location listners, ignore", ex); } } } } private void initializeLocationManager() { Log.e(TAG, "initializeLocationManager"); if (mLocationManager == null) { Thread LocThread = new Thread(new Runnable() { public void run() { mLocationManager = (LocationManager) getApplicationContext().getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE); } }); try { LocThread.join(); } catch (InterruptedException e) { Log.i("LocationError","Thread could not join"); e.printStackTrace(); } } } } </code></pre>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
