Openwave has invested significantly so that operators may leverage their investments in handset and network-based positioning determination equipment. Location Manager gathers a subscriber’s location from multiple available sources (Cell-ID, A-GPS, AOA, E-OTD, TDOA) and securely delivers that data to the requesting application. The system may be configured to provide best available or a select method with backup, ensuring the right level of accuracy, consistent availability and cost control.
Protecting subscriber privacy and trust is critical to the success of commercial location services. Openwave’s Location Manager Commercial Edition provides the controls necessary to secure the permission-based release of a subscriber’s location.
