I’m developing a user tracking application using .NET MAUI, but I’m encountering significant issues with location accuracy. The captured latitude and longitude often show incorrect positions, even when the user is stationary. I’m looking for ways to improve the accuracy and reliability of location data. Here are the details:
Current Setup:
Using Microsoft.Maui.Devices.Sensors to capture location data.
Requesting GeolocationAccuracy.Best for location updates. Handling necessary permissions in both Android.
Problems Encountered:
Significant deviation in latitude and longitude values.
Incorrect location data even when the user hasn’t moved.
Sporadic jumps in location points resulting in inaccurate tracking.

How can I improve the accuracy of location data in my .NET MAUI application? Are there any best practices or techniques to minimize incorrect location readings and achieve more reliable tracking? Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
