Original Abstract Submitted

In some implementations, a mobile device may receive, from a server, a set of priority lists for localization of the mobile device, where the set of priority lists comprises, for each context of a plurality of contexts, a corresponding prioritized list of localization methods for the mobile device to use, during a journey, for a respective context. The mobile device may determine an applicable context from the plurality of contexts based on a course location of the mobile device along the journey. The mobile device may perform localization method in accordance with a priority list, from the set of priority lists, corresponding to the applicable context.
