If you look at the webpage of telecomsystems (http://www.telecomsys.com) they state that their platform is GPS based.

I see no other way of doing this reliably than to put some kind of GPS device into the VoIP unit.

Article regarding indoor GPS and other locator service.

If you can put a locator into a cellphone, I see no reason why you cannot do the same in a VoIP unit.
