I did research on the accuracy of cell phone pings
(Source: Pinged - Live Phone Tracking - Badge Apps™ )
(Idk if this accurate)
The latitude and longitude by themselves are not the location of the device. This is commonly the location of the cell tower. You have to map the accuracy or radius value!
The accuracy (or radius) value is a number that represents a distance in meters from the GPS coordinates that identifies an area the device is believed to be in.
The smaller the accuracy value, the more precise the reporting of the device’s location will be.
If you have a single ping, your search area will be inside the red radius:
To reduce the search area, use multiple pings to triangulate the location of the device. If you have multiple pings in an area over a short period of time, the likely location of the device is where the radii overlap.
this looks important:
i did research on cell tower locations:
theres a website that shows a map of all cell towers everywhere in the world:
-t mobile 4g tower (eNB ID 60970 bands 2,12,66) is 6 blocks north of the north ping.
-t-mobile 4g LTE tower (eNB id 151509 Band 2) almost exactly where the south ping was.
-sprint 4g tower (eNB ID 338177) 1.5 blocks south of south ping.
what carrier did she use? depending on the carrier, you triangulate the towers and the pings. I still quite haven’t wrapped my head around how it works but I see there is some “triangulation” involved. The ping is not an exact location of the phone as I have been persistent about since page 1. It sucks the cops haven’t communicated this information to anyone.
We need to find that phone. It will be a major clue as to her location.
