GPS cell phone tracker


Can anyone tell me if there is any way that I can find out if there is any GPS tracking device in my young child's bus, who goes to middle school and is riding the bus. I would be able to locate her in the event of an emergency or if she does not come back home on time. I have been told that there is a cell phone by which anyone can be located by means of GPS. Does anyone know the brand/model? Please help me out.

GSM Location

GSM localization is a service offered by mobile telephony operators that can determine with some precision, where a mobile terminal is physically determined.

The various methods used for locating GSM are

  • Cell of origin (Cell of Origin), which include cell ID (Cell ID) and enhanced cell ID(Enhanced Cell ID).
  • Cell ID: The accuracy of this method is 200 m in urban areas, 2 km in suburban area sand ranges from 3 to 4 km in rural settings.
  • Enhanced Cell ID, this method achieves an accuracy very similar to that provided by the Cell ID for urban, and rural settings offering circular sectors of 550 m.
  • Observed time difference or E-OTD Enhanced Observed Timed Difference the precision of this method depends on the number of LMUs available on the network, varying between 50 m and 200 m with an LMU for every 3 base stations.
  • Time of arrival.
  • Angle of arrival.
  • Enhanced observed time difference improved estimate of the time difference.

SPOT GPS - Satellites at your service

The personal tracking device SATELLITE uses GPS satellite network to determine its position (exact coordinates) and transmits this information to the intended recipient usinga private network of communications satellites. This device allows you to notify others about your position via Google Maps, or to an Emergency Response Centre International GEOS International 9-1-1 and request assistance when needed anywhere in the world, completely independent of a cell phone coverage or radio relay stations.
