Abstract

See full text

A system and method for managing the provisioning of location information on a mobile communications unit (e.g., a cellular phone) is disclosed. When a request for location information on a particular mobile communications unit is received, the general location of the mobile communications unit may be determined. This general location information may then be used to determine if any position determination equipment site would be able to provide the desired location information. Therefore, a request for location information on a given mobile communications unit is not invoked to a particular position determination equipment site until it has been first determined that the position determination equipment site would in fact be able to provide the desired location information.
