# SET\_GPS

The **SET\_GPS** command updates the device’s current location using latitude and longitude coordinates.

This allows Drizz to simulate any geographic position—crucial for apps that rely on delivery zones, maps, geo-restrictions, or location-based experiences.

**Syntax:** SET\_GPS(latitude=\<value>, longitude=\<value>)

**Importance of Latitude & Longitude**

1. Latitude represents the north–south position
2. Longitude represents the east–west position
3. Both must be precise to ensure correct map placement
4. Even minor deviations can change the pickup/drop-off point, delivery coverage, or available services
5. Many apps calculate features (ETA, pricing, distance, availability) based on these coordinates

**When to use:**

1. Testing location-based apps
2. Simulating pickup/drop-off points
3. Checking geo-specific features (store availability, delivery coverage)

**Example:**

SET\_GPS(latitude=12.9716, longitude=77.5946)

### Best Practices for SET\_GPS

1. Always use precise latitude and longitude values\
   Small deviations may shift location markers, affect delivery availability, or alter routing results.
2. Maintain the correct order: latitude first, longitude second\
   Example: **SET\_GPS**(latitude=12.9716, longitude=77.5946)
3. Use real-world coordinates for consistent testing

> Prefer actual pin-drop coordinates from Google Maps instead of approximations.
