Check CID via Mozilla Location Service #71

Do a request via Mozilla Location Service and check if the cellid is in the area.

Example result (you get latitude, longitude and the accuracy):

{
    "location": {
        "lat": 51.0,
        "lng": 12.1
    },
    "accuracy": 1200.4
}

This could be interesting as fallback to opencellid. Maybe there are people here that would be help to collect cellids for the project.

Thanks for clarifying @hannosch. I've been following your wetting procedures closely, and would probably trust your data set more, since it is transparent to what you do.

In either case I would like to see a possibility to download your data separately from within our app. For example by using a setting of:

External BTS data source(s): 
( ) OCID only
( ) MLS only
(o) both OCID and MLS
