Seeker Wireless’ technology used proprietary statistical algorithms to calculate the position of mobile devices based on combinations of cellular, Wi-Fi and/or GPS radio data measured by the terminal.

In the majority of their commercial solutions, the processing of the radio data for location determination is performed in the terminal or on the SIM card, providing a distributed, user-plane architecture.

Seeker Wireless did however also provide a zone-based charging (geofencing) solution that can be configured to operate as a purely network-based system.

Commercially deployed services that use Seeker Wireless location technology include the Local Zone [1][2] and Vodafone Acasa [3][4] ‘Home Zone’ (FMS) services, deployed by Vodafone New Zealand and Vodafone Romania respectively, and a mobile directory search service, Rednano Locate,[5] deployed by SPH Search in Singapore.

In 2011, the intellectual property was acquired by the Safely division of Location Labs
