Locate your IoT SIMs without GPS/GNSS capability
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Belmont, MA, 03/19/2026 – OneSimCard IoT (https://iot.onesimcard.com) today announced the launch of a powerful new Geolocation feature within its OSCAR Portal, enabling businesses to accurately identify the location of active IoT devices-even when those devices lack built-in GPS or GNSS capabilities.
This innovation marks a significant advancement for organizations managing distributed IoT deployments across industries such as agriculture, retail, and energy.

Solving a Critical IoT Visibility Gap
Until now, businesses relying on 4G and 5G connectivity had limited visibility into the physical location of their IoT SIM card enabled devices unless those devices included GPS hardware. While legacy 3G networks previously supported some location capabilities, they are now largely deprecated.
With OneSimCard IoT’s new Geolocation functionality, users can now pinpoint device locations using cell tower triangulation, delivering accuracy within approximately half a mile.
This capability is especially valuable for devices such as:
• Agricultural soil sensors
• POS (point-of-sale) credit card terminals
• EV charging station routers
• Industrial IoT equipment

Why Geolocation Without GPS Matters
The ability to locate non-GPS-enabled IoT devices unlocks several strategic benefits:
1. Operational Visibility
Businesses gain real-time awareness of where active devices are deployed, reducing blind spots in large-scale IoT ecosystems.
2. Asset Tracking & Recovery
Organizations can quickly identify misplaced, relocated, or stolen equipment-even when devices lack tracking hardware.
3. Network & Deployment Optimization
Understanding device distribution helps teams optimize network performance, troubleshoot connectivity issues, and improve infrastructure planning.
4. Cost Efficiency
Eliminates the need for expensive GPS hardware integration in low-power or cost-sensitive devices.
5. Compliance & Risk Management
Ensures devices remain within authorized geographic regions, supporting regulatory compliance and fraud prevention.

Simple, Flexible Access Within OSCAR Portal (https://iot.onesimcard.com/IoT-SIM-card-Management-platform/)
The Geolocation feature is seamlessly integrated into OneSimCard’s OSCAR SIM Card Management Portal, offering two intuitive methods:
• Single Device Lookup: Users can click a globe icon next to any active IoT SIM card to instantly view its location on a map.
• Bulk Geolocation: Multiple SIMs can be selected and mapped simultaneously via the bulk operations menu, enabling efficient fleet-level visibility.

Driving the Next Wave of IoT Intelligence
With this launch, OneSimCard IoT continues to enhance its OSCAR platform as a centralized hub for IoT SIM card connectivity management-bridging the gap between connectivity and actionable intelligence.
As IoT ecosystems scale, the ability to know where your devices are-without relying on GPS-becomes a competitive advantage, enabling smarter operations, reduced costs, and improved decision-making.
