title: How to disable google map current location tracking after first loading android
body: <p>I am google map apis for my current location. I am working on map application in which it first load current position then user can be able to point to any where on the map. My problem is that if i am moving, then my location is again and again moving towards my current position and user is not able to point the desired location on map as it again routes towards its current location. My code is given below, in which i am using code to initialize the map. Your help will be appreciated.</p>
  
  <pre><code>private static final LocationRequest REQUEST = LocationRequest.create()
              .setInterval(8000) // 5 seconds
              .setFastestInterval(16) // 16ms = 60fps
              .setPriority(LocationRequest.PRIORITY_HIGH_ACCURACY);
