		<p>Contains the framework API classes that define Android location-based and related services.</p>
		<p class="note">
		<strong>Note:</strong> The Google Location Services API, part of Google Play
		Services, provides a more powerful, high-level framework that automates tasks such as
		location provider choice and power management. Location Services also provides new
		features such as activity detection that aren't available in the framework API. Developers who
		are using the framework API, as well as developers who are just now adding location-awareness
		to their apps, should strongly consider using the Location Services API.

		<p class="warning">
		<strong>This API is not the recommended method for accessing Android location.</strong><br>
		The
		<a href="{@docRoot}reference/com/google/android/gms/location/package-summary.html">Google Location Services API</a>,
		part of Google Play services, is the preferred way to add location-awareness to
		your app. It offers a simpler API, higher accuracy, low-power geofencing, and
		more. If you are currently using the android.location API, you are strongly
		encouraged to switch to the Google Location Services API as soon as
		possible.
