Apparatus and method for generating location information

An apparatus for generating location information transmits an SUPL INIT message for measuring a location to a target terminal so as to position the target terminal. The target terminal transmits an SUPL POS INIT message including RFID tag information to the apparatus. The apparatus determines a positioning method of the target terminal by using RFID tag information, generates the location of the target terminal according to the determined positioning method, and transmits the location to a service user.
