The present invention aims to provide a mobile terminal and a location measurement method that can reduce measurement loads on the terminal. The GPS positioning unit 101 performs location measurement in predetermined cycles or in accordance with user instructions. In performing the measurement, the control unit 105 determines a movement state of the mobile terminal 100. The control unit 105, when determining that the mobile terminal 100 is in a stationary state and the mobile terminal 100 has not moved from a most recently measured location by referring to state information stored in the state information management table 106b, can cause the location information storage table 106a to store therein the most recently measured location stored in the location information storage table 106a as a current location of the mobile terminal 100. |
