Abstract
No attribute is more distinguishing and valuable to mobile network operators and their
constituents (customers, suppliers, and investors) than customer location information.
Location-based Services (LBS) are predicted to finally take off beginning in late 2005 to early
2006. Many people do not understand the underlying technologies necessary to position wireless
devices, render the raw positioning data into usable location information, manage location
information, place the information into context through Geographic Information Systems (GIS), and
the issues associated with the use of location information by consuming LBS applications. This
publication provides the reader with an easy to understand, step-by-step approach to location
determination and management -- crucial knowledge for exploiting location as a value-added service
enabler for mobile communications.
Features and Benefits
This publication will answer your most important questions including:
What are the primary positioning technologies for cellular communications and how do they work?
What are the advantages and disadvantages of various positioning methods for various types of
location-based services (LBS)? What is Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and why is important to
positioning, location management, and LBS? What are the standards-based means for managing location
information? TABLE OF CONTENTS
