Abstract:
In an approach for identifying a location of a mobile device a processor receives a first set of Global Positioning System (GPS) data at a time, wherein the time is specified by the mobile device. A processor synchronizes the time with Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). A processor retrieves offset values, wherein the offset values comprise one or more values to adjust one or more location coordinates based on the synchronized time, and wherein the offset values are determined by comparing a known set of location coordinates to a set of location coordinates calculated using another set of GPS data. A processor calculates location coordinates of the mobile device using the first set of GPS data and the offset values. A processor stores at least the location coordinates of the mobile device and the synchronized time.
