The iPhone contains a digital compass and GPS support with Assisted GPS (A-GPS) support. Essentially this enables the iPhone to detect the direction the device is facing and to identify the current location by detecting radio signals from GPS satellites. In the event that GPS signals are unavailable or too weak to establish the current coordinates, the iPhone can also gain an approximate location using cellular and Wi-Fi information.
