If you could refer a Website/Application that can assist me.. Country: Lebanon Device: Motorola MC55 OS: Windows mobile 5 and 6

Any help is much appreciated. Thanks

GPS will most times not work indoor. You may use the CellID and a database with the locations of the cell towers. OpenCellID offers such data for free (opencellid.org) and they also provide an API to query or update the database. This will give you a more or less acurate location based on the cell tower location information.

  • I just found an article I remembered at codeproject where they implemented opencellid.org (and others): DeepCast http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/31965/Learn-How-to-Find-GPS-Location-on-Any-SmartPhone-a#6 – josef Sep 04 '12 at 08:40
