What do you mean with unknown data? The LocationChanged event will only be raised if there is a "fixed" location. You can handle the GpsStatus event to monitor the found satellites and whether they were used in the last location fix.

Before fixing location there is no data. I mean this when I say unknown data.

How can I know Location changed event is raised or not? I don't want to send data to the server before fixed location.

You should handle the LocationChanged event.

See the tutorial: GPS tutorial

How many satellites should be found to fix location? Is it 6?
