How to get the location using GSM (Cellular Network) in blackberry


I am working on a project in blackberry where i don't have GPS and i want to get the location in which i am there from time to time. I found that it is possible using a third member like opencellid.org. But i don't want to depend on other person. Is it possible to get the location coordinates in this way? Thank you
