1. A method for providing a navigation solution for a vehicle comprising:
obtaining inertial motion sensor data from a sensor assembly of the vehicle;
detecting a static condition for the vehicle based at least in part on the inertial motion sensor data, wherein static comprises motion of the vehicle below a suitable threshold;
selectively enabling reduced power operation based on the detected static condition, wherein enabling reduced power operation reduces processing load; and
providing the navigation solution for the vehicle while reduced power operation is enabled.
