Zusammenfassung:	A method for estimating accuracy of a position determination based on distance-dependent measurements is disclosed. The method comprises: storing (202) area information in relation to pre-defined geographical areas (110-116), wherein the area information for each pre-defined geographical area (110-116) includes accuracy information relating to accuracy of position determinations based on distance-dependent measurements in the pre-defined geographical area (110-116); receiving (204) a request for an accuracy estimate; determining (206) an area affiliation based on received position information in said request, wherein the area affiliation defines at least one applicable geographical area among the pre-defined geographical areas (110-116), wherein the position of the receiving unit (105) is located within the at least one applicable geographical area; and determining (208) the accuracy estimate based on the stored area information for the at least one applicable geographical area.
