Ot good app if you haven't got it

I assume 999 is the same there as here in the US with 911. Dispatcher gets an immediate rough location based upon cell tower serving the call and within the first 15 seconds of the call other factors are used (GPS/cell tower triangulation) to pinpoint location as Crash says to +-3m.

Having looked at it it seems this may be even more accurate, I don't know if phone towers can locate you to within 3 metres.

They can if you have 3 for triangulation. Most/all phones have GPS enabled these days which make it much easier. I worked for 4 years for the company that have patented a good percentage of cellular location technology http://www.comtechtel.com/public-saf...n-technologies
