How to stop multiple times method calling of didUpdateLocations() in ios

Question

This my code......

 -(void)locationManager:(CLLocationManager *)manager didUpdateLocations:(NSArray *)locations
 {

    location_updated = [locations lastObject];
    NSLog(@"updated coordinate are %@",location_updated);
    latitude1 = location_updated.coordinate.latitude;
    longitude1 = location_updated.coordinate.longitude;

    self.lblLat.text = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%f",latitude1];
    self.lblLon.text = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%f",longitude1];

    NSString *str = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/json?latlng=%f,%f&sensor=false",latitude1,longitude1];
    url = [NSURL URLWithString:str];
    NSURLRequest *request = [NSURLRequest requestWithURL:url];
    connection = [NSURLConnection connectionWithRequest:request delegate:self];
    if (connection)
    {
        webData1 = [[NSMutableData alloc]init];
    }
        GMSMarker *marker = [[GMSMarker alloc] init];
        marker.position = CLLocationCoordinate2DMake(latitude1,longitude1);
        marker.title = formattedAddress;
        marker.icon = [UIImage imageNamed:@"m2.png"];
        marker.map = mapView_;
        marker.draggable = YES;
 }

This method is call multiple times which i don't want.....

Answer 1

Add some restriction there. For timespan between locations and accuracy

-(void)locationManager:(CLLocationManager *)manager didUpdateLocations:(NSArray *)locations
{
 CLLocation *newLocation = locations.lastObject;

 NSTimeInterval locationAge = -[newLocation.timestamp timeIntervalSinceNow];
 if (locationAge > 5.0) return;

 if (newLocation.horizontalAccuracy < 0) return;

// Needed to filter cached and too old locations
 //NSLog(@"Location updated to = %@", newLocation);
 CLLocation *loc1 = [[CLLocation alloc] initWithLatitude:_currentLocation.coordinate.latitude longitude:_currentLocation.coordinate.longitude];
 CLLocation *loc2 = [[CLLocation alloc] initWithLatitude:newLocation.coordinate.latitude longitude:newLocation.coordinate.longitude];
 double distance = [loc1 distanceFromLocation:loc2];


 if(distance > 20)
 {    
     _currentLocation = newLocation;

     //significant location update

 }

//location updated

}
