Abstract:
Methods, systems, computer-readable media, and apparatuses for detection of anomalies within indoor map information are presented. In some embodiments, the method includes receiving a digital map. The method may further include identifying one or more anomalies within the digital map using a software-based anomaly detection tool. The method may also include displaying one or more suggested corrections to a user based on the one or more identified anomalies. The method may additionally include correcting the one or more identified anomalies within the digital map.
Abstract:
Various methods, apparatuses and articles of manufacture are provided which may be implemented in various devices for use in characterizing environments. In an example, a mobile device may, gather a plurality of measurements during a period of time, including one or more first measurements generated by one or more environmental sensors, and one or more second measurement generated by a radio based, at least in part, on one or more wireless signals received by the radio. In response to a determination that the mobile device is to report a travel history corresponding to at least a portion of the period of time, the mobile device may generate a travel log based, at least in part, on at least one first measurement and at least one second measurement, and transmit the travel log to an external device.
Abstract:
Techniques are provided which may be implemented using various methods, apparatuses and/or articles of manufacture to provide or otherwise support mobile device positioning. The mobile device positioning may be based, at least in part, on one or more perceived routability constraints that may or may not affect actual movement of a mobile device within an indoor environment.
Abstract:
In one implementation, a method may comprise: storing a user profile indicative of at least one attribute of a user of a mobile station; determining a measurement value based, at least in part, on a signal from at least one sensor on the mobile station; and estimating a location of the mobile station based, at least in part, on an association of the at least one attribute and the measurement value with a context parameter map database.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatuses are provided which may be implemented in various devices to generate positioning assistance data and/or the like by mobile station with regard to at least one of a plurality of different indoor regions.

Abstract:
Techniques are provided which may be implemented using various methods and/or apparatuses to allow for location related information for a region of space within a structure to be divided into blocks and selectively provided in an efficient manner to a mobile station and/or a proxy device associated therewith. The mobile station may, for example, use the blocks of location related information to support signal-based position estimation and/or other like location based services.
Abstract:
Systems, apparatus and methods for merging maps used by a positioning server are presented. Original maps are overlaid, concatenated or inset to create a more detailed map. The original maps are from different sources and/or in different formats. By merging or fusing maps together, a positioning server may create a better structural map, which is in turn used to create improved positioning assistance data.
