Abstract
Techniques are described for leveraging position-determining functions and Wi-Fi functions on a device by integrating these functions. In one or more implementations, Wi-Fi data is provided on a electronic device configured with Wi-Fi and position-determining functionality. This Wi-Fi data is then used to facilitate the device accessing a Wi-Fi network available within a geographical region associated with the device. In at least some implementations, the facilitating is associated with identifying and/or selecting one or more potential Wi-Fi networks to access by integrating the Wi-Fi data with received positioning data and map data on the device. In at least some embodiments, the facilitating is associated with communicatively linking to a selected Wi-Fi network.
