PySide6.QtPositioning

Detailed Description

The Qt Positioning API provides positioning information via QML and C++ interfaces.

Currently, the API is supported on Android, iOS, macOS, Linux, and Windows (with GPS receivers exposed as a serial port providing NMEA sentences or using Windows.Devices.Geolocation).

Overview

The Qt Positioning API lets you to determine a position by using a variety of possible sources, including satellite, wifi, or text files. That information can then be used to, for example, determine a position on a map. In addition, you can use to the API to retrieve satellite information and perform area based monitoring.

Permissions

Starting from Qt 6.6, the Qt Positioning module uses new QPermission API to handle location permissions. This means that Qt itself no longer queries for these permissions, so this needs to be done directly from the client application.

Please refer to the Application Permissions page for an example of how to integrate the new QPermission API into the application.
