A system and method are provided for data fusion between portable electronic devices and wearable accessories that is used to improve location information, particularly with respect to vertical location. A barometer sensor in a wearable accessory is used to obtain relative accurate height…
Embodiments provide for methods and portable positioning devices adapted to determine a geospatial position of a point of interest. In one embodiment, the portable positioning device comprises an antenna, a levelling detector, an imaging device, a display unit and a processing unit. The antenna may…
An information processing device includes a first processor. The first processor obtains a first positioning result and a second positioning result higher in positioning accuracy than the first positioning result. In response to obtaining the first positioning result, the first processor generates…
In a locator, a data synchronization unit calculates an interpolated value for autonomous sensor data which corresponds to a time of latest GNSS data. A complex positioning unit performs complex positioning using the latest GNSS data and the interpolated value for the autonomous sensor data. An…
A method for estimating the pressure measurement bias of a barometric sensor in a wireless terminal. A location engine using the method generates an enhanced estimate of the measurement bias. The location engine generates the enhanced estimate based in part on relatively coarse estimates of the…
A surveying pole is part of a primary surveying system (e.g., a Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) or a total station). Cameras are mounted to the surveying pole and used for ground tracking as the survey pole is moved from a place where the primary surveying system is unimpeded to an…
There is disclosed a system and method for forecasting the positions of marine vessels. In an aspect, the present system is adapted to execute a forecasting algorithm to forecast the positions of one or a great many marine vessel(s) based on one or more position reporting systems including coastal…
The subject matter described in this specification is directed to a computer system and techniques for determining a location of an autonomous vehicle. The computer system is configured to determine the location using localization data from multiple data sources. When the localization data from the…
