The device location is not logged in this database at all.
What it does is log the locations of all cell towers that it can communicate with at a point in time. So for a given timestamp, there will be dozens of points logged. So while the data will be able to say "You were somewhere in downtown Pittsburgh at 1:59PM on Monday", it won't be able to say "You were at 517 Liberty Ave at 1:59 on Monday." Also, timestamps for existing towers are updated whenever they are mapped an additional time. So if I was downtown again on Thursday, no one would be able to tell from my data that I had been there on Monday.
