Description
Before GPS position is acquired, the marker is shown at the coordinates (0, 0). Pressing GPS button it is possible to zoom to some empty area. I would suggest that in such situation the GPS button should just say some error message (e.g. "GPS position not available") and also the marker should not be shown on the map.
But in case that we already had GPS position but lost it, we would still show the marker (gray) and allow zooming to it by clicking the GPS button.

Research direction
Start at the GPS button and map-marker handling in the mobile app; trace how unavailable, previously acquired, and current positions are represented. Done means an unavailable position shows an error and no marker, while a previously acquired position remains as a gray marker and can still be targeted by the GPS button.
