If you look at the webpage of telecomsystems (http://www.telecomsys.com)
they state that their platform is GPS based.
I see no other way of doing this reliably than to put some kind of GPS
device into the VoIP unit.

If you can put a locator into a cellphone, I see no reason why you cannot
do the same in a VoIP unit.
