It looks like you installed the plugin for Ionic 4. I did the same.

You just need to install the correct plugin with this:

$ npm install --save @ionic-native/location-accuracy@4

and the import statement is actually

import { LocationAccuracy } from '@ionic-native/location-accuracy';

Here is the ionic 3 documentation
