  • Precise access point placement and location measurement
    Patent number: 10932139
    Abstract: A plurality of access points located within a building structure may provide various location-based services, such as navigation, to mobile devices within the building structure. To more accurately determine the location of the plurality of access points, a floorplan of the interior of the building structure may be obtained. A plurality of images of the interior of the building structure is then obtained. At least one of the images includes an image of at least one of the plurality of access points. A plurality of reference points may also be located within the building structure and obtained. Based on the plurality of images, reference points, and the floorplan, a composite image of the interior of the structure is generated. Based on the composite image, the location of each of the plurality of access points is determined.
