D11.6: Survey on Mobile Identity
The deliverable in hand provides the results of an explorative survey on the
control model for identity related data in location-based services (LBS)
presented in FIDIS deliverable D11.2.
The survey was performed to explore the influence of LBS characteristics (pull
vs. push based, indirect vs. direct profile creation) on the perceived amount of
control participants have about the disclosure of their identity.
Four scenarios, each reflected a different aspect of the control model, have been
designed and tested.

3.1 Generating location information
Location information can be generated using different technologies. There is a variety of technologies available today, which are used to get the position of an entity (person, object, etc.). In this document, the following classification is used:
Satellite-based positioning systems such as the Global Positioning System (GPS) or the European Galileo system
Certain implementations of biometrics, such as face recognition systems used in public places (e.g. stadiums, train stations, or airports) in the context of tracking and tracing persons
Optical sensors allowing for identification of objects (such as license-plate scanners for vehicles)
Passive, infrared-based location systems (e.g. PDAs used in museums to guide visitors)
Other wireless technologies, such as Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) based systems or wireless communication systems, such as WiFi or Bluetooth
Using location of known objects (e.g. an RFID or Bluetooth beacon)
Using triangulation to establish a more detailed location of a person or object
Cell-based mobile communication networks such as GSM and UMTS
Using location of known objects (e.g. the location of a base station)
Using triangulation to establish a more detailed location of a person or object (using several base stations)
Chip-card-based systems:
Payment systems such as credit cards and Maestro Cards used at a certain ATM
Personalised access cards of employees to access (certain parts of) a building.
