CC:IPS Pledge - Use of Location Technology

22 December 2022

CC:IPS members call on public authorities and emergency services globally to actively engage with Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) and smartphone Operating Systems providers in relation to the deployment of accurate handset-based caller location.

Moreover, we call on smartphone Operating Systems providers to actively publicize the availability of handset-based location and to encourage public authorities and MNOs to make use of it.

Lastly, we call on international organisations, such as the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), to raise awareness of the availability of handset-based location and to encourage its member countries to deploy such a life-saving feature.
