ABSTRACT:
A system and a method for reporting a location are provided. A location finding device determines whether the location finding device is located within a first distance of a first location or area. When the location finding device determines that the location finding device is not located within the first distance of the first location, the location finding device determines whether a wireless access point is available. When a wireless access point is determined to be available, the location finding device reports information indicative of a location of the location finding device to a server via the wireless access point.
