Eenhance and user experience with Device Location Verification API

Device Location Verification API - CAMARA Sandbox is part of the set of of Network APIs under CAMARA open-souce project by Orange.

This sandboxed version is limited to a short list of mobile devices (MSISDNs) that only work in our lab.

What it does?
