Improving GPS Accuracy with Mobile Devices

The podcast episode explores the idea of reimagining GPS and improving its accuracy with mobile devices. The guest, Sean Gorman, introduces the concept of using software to turn every mobile phone into a base station and create customized error corrections for each device. By leveraging a large number of spatially diverse measurements from multiple devices, the podcast discusses how this methodological reimagining can enhance GPS accuracy and provide more reliable location information. The goal is to open up new opportunities and use cases, such as improving rideshare experiences, enhancing fitness tracking accuracy, and creating better data collection networks.
