The default trace shown on the map in Direction of Motion Services is the DOM-GPS Fusion in purple.   

 

User can choose to also show GPS only path which will be displayed in blue and DOM DST with NO GPS 

fusion or GPS learned step count in black.  The default view is DOM-GPS Fusion path only, additional 

traces need to be selected in Direction of Motion Services Setting before starting the tracking.  

 

If indoors, under tree canopy or in urban canyons, there will be GPS errors.  If starting the Direction of 

Motion Service in these types of situations, please contact our FAE team at 

[email protected] for additional information. 

 

Figure 7 shows a sample run with both the DOM GPS Fusion (purple) and GPS (blue) paths.  Tracking 

was started outdoors and moved indoors to PNI offices.  Notice the purple path continues to track 

accurately indoor while GPS indoors is not able to track properly.
