^{Logistics and security in China Unicoms network} Sichuan Yingda builds LBS with CPS

Mobile value added service provider, Sichuan Yingda, has selected Cambridge Positioning Systems’ Matrix location system to drive its enterprise location-based services on China Unicom’s network. The commercial agreement, announced last week, will be used to locate and track vehicles, security personnel, laptops, and other assets. CPS says that the agreement is a major step as it will provide a strong platform for growth in China, where the company is eyeing opportunities for their GSM and WCDMA products. The company says that ‘Matrix’ is already a proven performer in the Chinese GSM market with extensive trials in urban and suburban areas. A number of Matrix-enabled devices have been put through their paces in recent months, delivering high accuracy performance, fast location fixes and all-area coverage in a wide range of demanding environments, the company noted.
