Tele2 First with CellPoint's Enhanced Location Service

Tele2 First with CellPoint's Enhanced Location Service Stockholm, September 26 -- Tele2 has become the first GSM operator to adopt CellPoint's enhanced Resource Manager location service. CellPoint's new solution with enhanced roaming support will allow multinational companies to pinpoint their resources abroad using existing Internet and mobile phone systems, with accurate location maps for each supported country. The enhancements include a new location server which increases positioning accuracy and new support for textual location descriptions, a WAP interface and new management functions for resource co-ordinators. CellPoint has developed these enhancements after working closely with end- users in the market for location services. "The market for low cost Internet-based resource co-ordination systems is huge," said Fredrik Lindberg, CellPoint's Director of Product Management. "Resource Manager was developed for small and medium-sized companies looking to deploy new services while avoiding investment in a large administrative system." "Tele2 will launch the enhanced Resource Manager version of its 'T2 Position' service during October this year," said Jens Pettersson, Tele2's Business Manager, Mobile Telephony. "The improved accuracy and new interface will strengthen our offer to our customers." The application provides user-friendly Internet and WAP interfaces using standard GSM or WAP telephones. It is based on CellPoint's proven Mobile Location System which supports both handset and network-based location solutions. Resource Manager enables resource coordinators to manage their mobile service personnel, assets or vehicles more effectively, increasing mobile workforce productivity as well as improving customer service levels through faster dispatch, more timely information and reduced waiting time.
