Nokia N82 manual Position requests, About Maps

Options > Satellite status. Or, in the Maps application, select Options > Map options > Satellite info.

If your device has found satellites, a bar for each satellite is shown in the satellite info view. The longer the bar, the stronger the satellite signal. When your device has received enough data from the satellite signal to calculate the coordinates of your location, the bar turns black.

Initially your device must receive signals from at least four satellites to be able to calculate the coordinates of your location. When the initial calculation has been made, it may be possible to continue calculating the

coordinates of your location with three satellites. However, the accuracy is generally better when more satellites are found.
