A telematics control entity to determine position data of a vehicle having a network access entity connected to a cellular network and configured to transmit, in case of an emergency, a vehicle position via the cellular network to a service entity configured to collect the vehicle positions for a plurality of vehicles. An antenna signal interface is configured to receive satellite-based measurement data and at least one position determining unit is configured to determine positioning data of the vehicle based on the satellite-based measurement data. A predefined integrity level describing a predefined risk classification of the functional safety is guaranteed to be provided by the positioning data. The positioning data is provided to an application entity in the vehicle requiring the predefined integrity level for the received positioning data.
