New location engine does not send physical cell ID

Open joelkoen opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

LTE cell towers have a physical cell ID, but the new location engine doesn't make use of this when requesting /v1/geolocate.

This might be related to #2391, as Ichnaea may be returning a location for the cell tower's whole coverage area as it does not know which physical unit of the cell tower the client is connected to.

geoclue also doesn't send this when requesting a location estimate. IMO this should be sent for increased accuracy in certain situations, but it definitely shouldn't be required: beacondb#22

This one should be fixed on master
