Enhancing location accuracy by leveraging our networks
In a nutshell
Device Location Verification API determines whether a mobile device is within the proximity of a specified geographical area. The API request includes the target area, defined as a circle with a specified center (latitude and longitude) and a radius or accuracy threshold. The API response confirms whether the location detected by the mobile network operator falls within the requested accuracy range.
Depending on the version of the API, other request and response parameters can be used. For example, the request can specify the maximum accepted age of the location information used in the verification, and the response can give information about such age and how the detected location matches the requested one.
