How to find out where a person is by mobile phone number?
Today everyone can determine where the owner of a cell phone is. Most operators offer an option - geolocation. It allows you to track the location of a subscriber up to several meters. There is no need for services such as GPS or GLONASS .
But, tracking a person by phone number can only occur if his device is within the coverage area of the cellular network. If he is located where the cellular operator does not work or his phone is turned off, then only special services can track him.
There are several services that allow you to track the location where a cell phone is currently located (in most cases, its owner too). One of these services is Mobile Monitoring .
The service offered by this service is paid. At the time of writing, a month of using the service cost 400 rubles. A small amount for obtaining data about loved ones.
We use official surveillance through a mobile operator
Surveillance through a mobile operator is not the easiest, but effective method to find out what your husband is hiding from you. Various companies have their own special programs that allow you to find out about the location of the person you are interested in. This method is legal. In order to establish surveillance, you will need your spouse's phone and Internet access.
As one option, you can go to a cellular phone store and ask the consultants to set up this function directly on your husband’s smartphone. If it is not possible to borrow his gadget, then you will have to install surveillance yourself. On the website of mobile operators there are special services that can be activated by confirming consent via SMS message. However, it is worth remembering that this function is paid and the price is set depending on the telecom operator.
What is geolocation: how to find a person online by phone number?
Geolocation is the exact geographical location of an object. When using cellular communications, the subscriber's phone must periodically communicate with the base station. This is a feature of this communication technology. Therefore, its geolocation and even route can be easily tracked by analyzing such phone calls to the nearest stations.
At the same time, there is no need to activate the function of connecting the device with satellites. These modules may not be in the phone at all. But, thanks to cell towers, the subscriber can still be “calculated” and tracked.
Geolocation
As for the accuracy of such data, it depends on the type of cellular connection. In a city where the density of cellular stations is higher, the location of a subscriber can be determined down to the house number. Where cell towers are installed less frequently, the error in determining geolocation can reach several kilometers.
Description
Thanks to the “Locator” option, Megafon clients have the opportunity to:
- determine in real time the location of other people who have given their consent to this;
- track their movement routes;
- set areas, and receive notifications when entering or leaving them.
The coordinates are determined with an accuracy of 100 meters if the desired subscriber is located in the city center, 1 km in remote areas of the city, and several kilometers in small towns.
The search is carried out using Megafon base stations. Therefore, location accuracy will be higher if a person is in areas around which many such stations are deployed. As a rule, central areas of the city have this feature. Here you can determine the subscriber's location down to the street. In rural areas, towers are extremely rare, so accuracy is reduced. The locator will only be able to determine the name of the locality.
Also, the accuracy of determining coordinates depends on the following factors:
- terrain (if a person is in high mountains, accuracy is significantly reduced);
- presence of electromagnetic radiation;
- the number of high-rise multi-storey buildings in a given area.
