Access to phone lat/lon

[chewiebrian]

Hi, I am writing a watchface that consumes the yr.no API (https://www.yr.no/api/swagger/ui/index) instead your OpenWeatherMap weather data. The reason for that is because I want an hourly weather graph with at least three day info. Everything is working so far, even the 'internet companion' feature of AmazMod that lets me doing REST calls using the bluethooth data connection.

As the yr.no API needs the current latitude/longitude, I managed to retrieve it this way:

            final String weatherInfoJson = Settings.System.getString(service.getApplicationContext().getContentResolver(), "WeatherInfo");

            // Extract data from JSON
            JSONObject weather_data = new JSONObject(weatherInfoJson);
            if (weather_data.has("lat") && weather_data.has("lon")) {
                float lat = (float) weather_data.getDouble("lat");
                float lon = (float) weather_data.getDouble("lon");

                WeatherData.INSTANCE.setLat(lat);
                WeatherData.INSTANCE.setLon(lon);
            }

However, the latitude/longitude is truncated to 2 decimal positions, resulting in very poor positioning. Is there a way to retrieve more accurate coordinates from AmazMod?

Try using it as a double instead of casting it to a float

The data is already truncated to two decimals in the JSON... Using float instead of double wouldn't affect.
