A system for providing position data in a pre-determined format to a device (e.g. a smartphone, laptop etc.), whereby the device is capable of executing an application. The system utilises a plurality of position determination systems (e.g. GPS), which provide position data. The system further comprises an application program interface (API), which receives a request for position data from the application and passes this request to one of a plurality of position adapters. Each position adapter receives position data from a respective position determination system. The system further comprises an interface program providing data handling functions. The interface program determines whether the received position data is in a pre-determined format preferred by the application and if it is not, the respective position adapter creates position data in a pre-determined format.
