When a Location Information Server receives a request for location
information (using the locationRequest message), described in the
base HTTP Enabled Location Delivery (HELD) specification, it uses the
source IP address of arriving message as a pointer to the location
determination process. This is appropriate in many environments.
However, when an entity acting on behalf of the Target would like to
request location information then the source IP address of the
request will lead to wrong results. In other cases the IP address is
not the only identifier that serves as an input to the location
determination procedure.
This document extends the HELD protocol to allow the location request
message to carry additional identifiers assisting the location
determination process. It defines a set of URIs for Target
identifiers and an XML containment schema. This extension is used in
conjunction with HELD to provide Target identification, and set of
criteria of when to use this extensions are provided. Examples and
usage in HELD message syntax are also shown.
