Telit IoT LOCATE

Telit IoT LOCATE
is a location-based service (LBS) which gives Telit cellular module users an additional means of obtaining
a location fix. The service derives device position from
a triangulation process which uses cellular base-stations as references.
Telit IoT LOCATE represents the convergence of mobile
communications and location services conceived to
provide Telit customers with basic location information when GNSS signals are either masked or jammed
outdoors; or where GNSS signal strength is too weak
to provide a reliable position such as in many indoor
situations.
The Telit IoT LOCATE is a turnkey service solution
which provides basic device position data without any
additional hardware or software implementation.
Position data is accessible via the Telit Location Server
and available on all new Telit cellular modules that
can access the internet over the cellular network.
The service is provided on a “best effort” basis
because accuracy is highly dependent on network density and mapping information in the service’s location
database. Changes or updates on network topology
could temporary affect accuracy and/or availability.
The service is offered in partnership with RXNetworks, a leading provider of location based as well as
assisted-GNSS services.
The Telit IoT LOCATE service is available in two different grades: Basic and Premium. The Basic service is a
turnkey solution, available free of charge, that provides
Telit customers the opportunity to send a maximum of
one thousand (1000) position queries per month per
enabled device to the Telit Location Server. This limit
means more than 30 queries per day as medium value
per device. With the Premium service customers have
unlimited query access to the Telit Location Server at a
convenient additional fee.
Key features and benefits
I ncreased redundancy in outdoor situations with
a second position source
The service is provided on a “best effort” basis- accuracy varies based on network density and
mapping information in the service’s location
database.
A
basic rough-position that is available even
when GNSS signals are being jammed
I n combo Cellular + GNSS applications,
IoT LOCATE can provide initial rough-location
data to the GNSS module in order to speed-up a
final GNSS position fix.
