In Km, text box Specifies which values are valid for the output of getLastKnownLocation(NETWORK_PROVIDER).
If the value returned is farther from the default location than Tolerance, then we can assume that getLastKnownLocation(NETWORK_PROVIDER) is returning an invalid location, in which case the system should present a message and inform the user that a precise location cannot be acquired.

"Cannot get a precise location. Please enable the GPS, or select the location manually"

This addresses the situation when NETWORK_PROVIDER returns a location way off the user's current location, ie.. in another country
