Location accuracy in App

[mach1]

Might be old news to some;

I am blown away by the "Location" accuracy provided by the Tesla app.
I often park in my driveway, stacked two cars deep. Spot on .

The image shows an old Google satellite capture when I had two other cars parked in the driveway...
Tonight the Tesla takes the place of the forward most (blue) car.

I realize this might be more a function of my local cell phone carrier's towers accuracy vs. Tesla
software & signal but still...... I hope the Russians haven't hacked into my Tesla app and aren't aiming any drone missiles at me.

Ummm.... after a little research realize the car is using GPS satellite tracking (NAV); not cell towers.
The Tesla is simply reporting info to my phone. Didn't put it together since the app is on my phone

Very accurate.... I can move the car 40' forward to my home charge station, right outside my garage
& the arrow will move forward. The car will (of course) ghost.... not show since the satellite image
references the last time the Google map was updated.

I plan on contacting NASA and Google to find out precisely when the next satellite capture will be
so I can move my red Tesla up to the charge station and have an accurate facsimile image
whenever the car is charging

Or I guess I can simply look out my back window to check.....
