Location
Acquire the approximate location of your mobile devices or verify that they are within a given area using a mobile network based positioning system, both outdoors and indoors.
Network provided location for application use
There are many scenarios where device GPS based location service and data is either not feasible or requires further input. A device might not have GPS, it might be indoors, not sharing the location information or GPS data is unreliable. To augment or sometimes as alternative the GPS positioning, a network is able to position and provide location information about its connected devices.
Network as Code Location capability exposes detailed network location information of devices to the applications.
Location
With Location capability, developers can integrate location area verification or location queries of devices into their applications. Network as Code platform passes network provided location information – typically provided at the granularity of serving cell tower location mapped to coordinates – as geographic coordinates towards the applications. The applications can use this information to get approximate location of respective devices for high-level positioning or security verification purposes.
