The method of obtaining location data from the mobile telephone networks varies from network to network, but all follow a web service model, communicating via some form of internet protocol: SOAP, XML over HTTP, HTTP Post/Get. Which is all OK if you are a decent developer or are in an organisation that has them, but what about individual artists and bedroom hackers, Sunday afternoon entrepreneurs, the people who played a big part in making the web what it is today? How can these people get involved?
What we need to know is what type of service you would be comfortable with. Do you simply want the service of a 3rd party sympathetic to your objectives, to pass your RDF calls onto the networks, or do you want a drag and drop interface, within a complete authoring and hosting environment? What about creating knowledge of geographic position; it is one thing receiving the latitude, longitude and radius of the mobile telephone cell in which the phone is located, but how can this be correlated to meaning or effect? Would maps help? What would they look like?
