A system and method that provides communication devices with the capability of informing the user where the other party is located. A communication device receives a communication initialization signal. The communication device then receives data comprising location data of the communication device that initiated the communication. The data is translated into human-understandable form and conveyed to the user of the communication device. The device may be a mobile telephone, personal digital assistant, two-way pager or any other similar mobile system. The human-understandable form may be text on a text display, graphics on a graphics display (such as a map) or audio information. Alternatively, a communication device receives location data as part of the communication initialization signal. The device then translates the location data into human-understandable form and conveys that data to the user of the communication device.
