Featured Research Report  The Definitive Guide to Mobile Positioning and Location Management with GPS, Terrestrial Positioning, Non-cellular (RFID and WiFi) Positioning, and Managing Location Information
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.

Pages: 190 Also Recommended: Mapping Location-Based Services The U.S. wireless industry has shown renewed attention to automatic location identification (ALI) technology because of carriers' E911 Phase II deployment requirements. There are currently two types of ALI deployments; one is the regulatory mandated E911 Phase II technology with specified accuracy margins. The other is location-based service (LBS) applications, wireless carriers' commercial offerings that aim to generate a return on investment (ROI) for E911 deployments. Published: November 2004

Although IDC recognizes that the mobile LBS market also includes other segments - including public safety, mobile business process automation (MBPA) services, and telematics - this study focuses only on the market for mobile location-based services provided through mobile phones. For the purposes of this study and forecast for location-based services, a mobile location-based service requires two elements: First, the user must be using a wireless mobile device, such as a wireless phone or PDA. Second, the service involves automatically determining the geographic location of the user's device. Published: March 2004
