This must be called on the main thread Interface provides location information to the nsGeolocator via the nsIDOMGeolocationCallback interface. After startup() is called, any geo location change should call callback.update().

The nsIGeolocationProvider interface provides information about the current users location to interested parties via nsIGeolocationUpdate. After the provider has been initialized, any changes to location should call callback.onRequest().

You may find the WiFi access point monitoring service useful if you wish to implement support for WiFi-based location services. See dom/src/geolocation/NetworkGeolocationProvider.js for an example of how to write a geolocation provider.
