1. A method for selectively transmitting a target location to a requesting entity, comprising: determining the target location;determining a distance value associated with the target location; andif the target location is a location that is greater than or equal to the distance value away from a previous location, then transmitting the target location to the requesting entity;if the target location is a location that is less than the distance value away from a previous location, then determining a second distance value associated with the target location; andif the target location is a location that is greater than or equal to the second distance value away from a waypoint, then transmitting the target location to the requesting entity. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein the target location as transmitted is indicative of an adjusted location within an area of diluted precision of the target location. 3. The method of claim 1, wherein the target location as transmitted is represented, at least in part, by a descriptive tag. 4. The method of claim 1, further comprising timing the transmission of the target location to the requesting entity based, at least in part, on at least one of: a time interval, or a violation of a speed threshold. 5. A method for selectively transmitting a target location to a requesting entity, comprising: determining the target location;determining a distance value associated with the target location; andif the target location is a location that is greater than or equal to the distance value away from a waypoint, then transmitting the target location to the requesting entity;if the target location is a location that is less than the distance value away from the waypoint, then determining a second distance value associated with the target location; andif the target location is a location that is greater than or equal to the second distance value away from a previous location, then transmitting the target location to the requesting entity. 6. The method of claim 5, wherein the target location as transmitted is indicative of an adjusted location within an area of diluted precision of the target location. 7. The method of claim 5, wherein the target location as transmitted is represented, at least in part, by a descriptive tag. 8. The method of claim 5, further comprising timing the transmission of the target location to the requesting entity based, at least in part, on at least one of: a time interval, or a violation of a speed threshold. 9. An apparatus for selectively transmitting a target location to a requesting entity, the apparatus comprising: means for determining the target location;means for determining a distance value associated with the target location; andmeans for transmitting the target location to the requesting entity in response to a determination that the target location is a location that is greater than or equal to the distance value away from a previous location;means for determining a second distance value associated with the target location in response to a determination that the target location is a location that is less than the distance value away from a previous location; andmeans for transmitting the target location to the requesting entity in response to a determination that the target location is a location that is greater than or equal to the second distance value away from a waypoint. 10. The apparatus of claim 9, wherein the target location as transmitted is indicative of an adjusted location within an area of diluted precision of the target location. 11. The apparatus of claim 9, wherein the target location as transmitted is represented, at least in part, by a descriptive tag. 12. The apparatus of claim 9, further comprising: means for timing the transmission of the target location to the requesting entity based, at least in part, on at least one of: a time interval, or a violation of a speed threshold. 13. An apparatus for selectively transmitting a target location to a requesting entity, the apparatus comprising: means for determining the target location;means for determining a distance value associated with the target location; andmeans for transmitting the target location to the requesting entity in response to a determination that the target location is a location that is greater than or equal to the distance value away from a waypoint;means for determining a second distance value associated with the target location in response to a determination that the target location is a location that is less than the distance value away from a waypoint; andmeans for transmitting the target location to the requesting entity in response to a determination that the target location is a location that is greater than or equal to the second distance value away from a previous location. 14. The apparatus of claim 13, wherein the target location as transmitted is indicative of an adjusted location within an area of diluted precision of the target location. 15. The apparatus of claim 13, wherein the transmitted target location is represented by a descriptive tag. 16. The apparatus of claim 13, further comprising timing the transmission of the target location to the requesting entity according to at least one of: a time interval, or a violation of a speed threshold. 17. An apparatus for selectively transmitting a target location to a requesting entity, the apparatus comprising: memory; anda processor to: determine the target location;determine a distance value associated with the target location; andinitiate transmission of the target location to the requesting entity in response to a determination that the target location is a location that is greater than or equal to the distance value away from a previous location;determine a second distance value associated with the target location in response to a determination that the target location is a location that is less than the distance value away from a previous location; and initiate transmission of the target location to the requesting entity in response to a determination that the target location is a location that is greater than or equal to the second distance value away from a waypoint. 18.
