Hi,

I've been searching for this for some time now, but is there an API (C# and Visual studio preferred) that allows the identification of the GSM-masts that are within my range?

I know it is possible, since google-maps is also able to use this info to determine location.


Probably I'm using the incorrect terminology, since all my search-queries come up empty or with useless info.

Is there someone that has a link/answer/document explaining this in somewhat more detail?

PS: I'm new at this, so be gentle :D

When clicking on your link, I get:

Sorry - no matches. Please try some different terms.

Can you tell me what search criteria you used, so I can repeat?
