We have a mobile app planned, it needs to know it's location as a requirement to do it's job (in one incarnation). The location has to be withing 3-5m (10-16ft) accuracy and has to be updated every 30s to 1min.

  1. Is it possible to do?
  2. Would it be a resource hog on the battery or hardware?
  3. What about the permissions to check or gather this kind of data?

For balanced location services you should use Google fused location Api.

Fused Location Api has options of balanced power mode and high accuracy mode. TBH, its not that of resource hog.

Permissions required:<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION" /> <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" />
