From the Apple Docs :

typedef enum {
   kCLAuthorizationStatusNotDetermined  = 0,
   kCLAuthorizationStatusRestricted ,
   kCLAuthorizationStatusDenied ,
   kCLAuthorizationStatusAuthorized ,        <---- THIS ONE!
   kCLAuthorizationStatusAuthorizedAlways  = kCLAuthorizationStatusAuthorized ,
   kCLAuthorizationStatusAuthorizedWhenInUse 
} CLAuthorizationStatus;

kCLAuthorizationStatusAuthorized

This app is authorized to use location services.
