Missing Location Accuracy data?

Thanks, I appreciate the suggestions.

If you’re in a valley, or under tree canopy, or there is heavy cloud, GPS coordinates can be highly inaccurate, especially when you first switch the equipment on and often for some time after that. Hence the usefulness of the accuracy field.

Yes! I’ve seen that happen sometimes, depending on the geography. Though I am amazed how well some of the latest devices cope with those issues, since they use not only the GPS satellites, but also GLONASS, Galileo and BeiDou combined for better accuracy.
