Abstract:
1. A positioning method for a mobile terminal having a positioning function, wherein a positioning result is obtained by selectively using: data obtained by a positioning calculation; data obtained by a first calculation process for finding out a weighted average value from the results of two or more latest positioning calculations based on a plurality of positioning calculations; or data obtained by a second calculation process for finding out a weighted average value by adding the result of the latest positioning calculation as a calculation factor to the weighted average of past positioning calculation results based on a plurality of positioning calculations, the method further comprising: determining, based on a current condition of the mobile terminal, which data to be input to the positioning function to determine the positioning result; and determining the positioning result using the positioning function and the data determined to be input to the positioning function; and displaying the positioning result of the mobile terminal that corresponds to a current position of the mobile terminal.
