Abstract
A device may receive user equipment (UE) location data identifying a latitude and a longitude of a UE, as reported by the UE, and may receive network location data identifying a latitude and a longitude of the UE, as reported by a core network. The device may process the UE location data and the network location data to determine a confidence score associated with an actual location of the UE. The device may process the UE location data and the network location data, when the confidence score is outside a confidence interval, to determine whether the UE location data is valid. The device may perform one or more actions based on determining whether the UE location data is valid.
