Do you have a widget or any app requesting location services?
Check which options you have set under Settings | Location Services.
Also, you can download GPS Status from the Play Store (or any other GPS test from play store) to test GPS.
To get faster speeds on GPS, you can do this on GPS Status: Open application, go Menu/Tools/Manage A-GPS Status. Reset A-GPS Status and download new A-GPS data. This will download from the cell network satellite location data which will allow your phone to lock onto the satellites faster.

Does anyone else have this kind of battery drain from maps?
I have tried it with gps location on and off, same result.
Is there a way to tell which process in the phone is using the maps?
It has to do with Google Now.
Turn off the features of Google Now you don't use and also on the maps app turn off report from this device and that will help.
My maps usage went down a lot
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
Open maps, go to settings, then location settings, uncheck everything
I had the same issue. I deleted google maps via Root Uninstaller and re-downloaded from the store. The issue of maps sucking up all the battery went away.
try that.
Traffic Around Me is an easy to use GPS apps, it works by getting your current location and it will display your current surrounding traffic problem with map too, so you can pinpoint where is the problem happen.

Factory reset
First of all , I can se that is a WiFi only version. That means that the GPS is not using any A-GPS info and also it does not connect to the cell RBSs. Usualy it takes longer to connect to the satellites if you do not have any mobile connection. Try connecting to a WiFi network , outside and check if you have any position. Also install GPS test and see if your tablet is connecting to any satellites. But remember , do it outside !
just like the screenshot of my phone. Recently(June 2) I could not use and could not enable the location history. When I click the "Location History is off", nothing happened.

I have tried:
1. Verify my google account has enabled the service(location history). I logged in my google account on other devices and could use the location history service.
2. Other user account logged on my Mate8 could not use the location history.( they could use the location history on their device)
3. Tried different versions of google map on Mate 8. no use
