Q: Explanation of System Services in iOS 8?

Is there an explanation for what each of the items listed in Settings / Privacy / Location Services / System Services is for? I don't have enough information to understand what each of them does, and to determine whether or not they should be enabled.

iPhone 5, iOS 8.1.2

Thanks for the reply. I found that article, but it doesn't provide information on the options in System Services. I find it very frustrating that Apple would publish such an incomplete article.
