1. A method for generating position information in a mobile equipment provided with at least two position determination devices, the method comprising the following steps:
sharing access, between multiple applications, to the at least two position determination devices using a common interface, allocating to each position determination device at least one stored parameter value, detecting insertion of a new position determination device, in response to detecting insertion,
collecting at least one parameter for the new position determination device, andadding the new position determination device to a list of position determination devices, determining a context information, including whether a user is in transit, on foot or indoors, in response to a change in the context information,
selecting a context-corresponding position determination device selection process from at least two context-corresponding position determination device selection processes,using the context corresponding position determination device selection process to order the list of position determination devices based on the value of said at least one parameter for each position determination device, in response to one of the multiple applications requesting position information using the common interface, selecting a position determination device according to the ordered list of position determination devices, and activating said selected position determination device. |
