LOCATION BASED SERVICES

Location-based services (LBS) are information and entertainment services, accessed through mobile devices that utilize the geographical positioning function of the mobile device. LBS include services related to the location of a person or object such as personalized weather services, geo-social networking, delivery tracking, and even location-based games. ABI Research predicts that LBS will be a $13 billion business by 2013, up from $515 million last year.
