There are more precise methods than GSM Cell ID

"Multilateration: More advanced systems use the signal strength and timing from multiple adjacent cell towers to triangulate the phone's position. This is more accurate in urban areas where cell tower density is high."

In many cases accuracy better than 200 meters can be reached.
